    please make sure that you are plugged into your router and if you have an external wifi button please make sure that it is on.Then go to go to System-->Addmin-->Synaptic Package Manager. Then once the package manager has opened go to, Settings-->Repositories. Now make sure that all of the ticks are checked (see pic). After that is done close out of the software center. if you changed your repositories then a pop up will show close it. After That reload the synaptic package manger(see pic) After reloading close out of your package manager. Then open your terminal and typed in
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    then
    Code:
    sudo apt-get upgrade
    then
    Code:
    sudo reboot
    after rebooting go to your wireless manager(see pic) and right click on it make sure that wireless is enabled if ot is still greyed out tell us

    There are instructions for installation of your driver (with no internet access) on this page.
