Do you know your Wireless/Network Card manufacturer and Model? Try to update
the driver from their website.
Or uninstall the NIC (Network Interface Card) from Device Manager and Reboot
your machine, windows will install the driver for you or prompt you to insert
the CD/software driver for it to install.
