It is most likely the driver, which you will have to copy from another computer with a usb stick, or you can download using a wired connection.
It could also be a problem with your config file at /etc/network/interfaces (you will have to open it as a superuser to be able to save it; type: sudo gedit, then find it in the directory mentioned). Check to see if wlan0 is enabled.
