Hi, Miguel:

 

There can be one of many different wireless network adapters that HP could have installed in your notebook.

 

Please post the hardware ID for the device you see listed in the device manager labeled as a Network Controller, and then I will post the link to the wifi driver you need.

 

Use this guide for how to find the hardware ID:
