Is this a *real* installation to ext3/4 file format partition(s), or
another Wubi-like thing?

If the former, gather the info about your wireless NIC as suggested,
then go from there. Google the chipset plus the netbook model. From
everything I've read, wireless connectivity on netbooks is nearly always
enabled OOTB. But you *have* to know what wireless chipset your machine
uses before you can figure it out or before anyone can help.
