Wtf? I just bought a new laptop, I have it all set up and went to install the internet. Apparently I have no ethernet card in it... What a kick in the ass I thought all computers came standard with them now. Am I missing something?

IN order to connect I have to have my isp installed. When I try to install it it says error and that it couldn't detect an ethernet card. The same thing happened on my desktop, once I installed one it worked.
