Anyone what to do here with my msi u160dx notebook which doesnt detect any WiFi connection after installing windows update? I already tries uninstalling the update. Did the system restore and uninstalling and installing the network adapter in device manager. And it looks like im not seeing any wireless adapter in device manager? Does it really has to have wireless adapter aside from realtek PCIe family controller? Under my network settings. It only shows local area connection. Please help

Are there any unidentified devices?

Go to MSI's website and download the Wireless drivers.

EDIT: Look at this PDF to find out what WiFi card it's got in it, then google for the drivers for that card.

There is no unidentified device. How would you know that the driver is specific for my notebook?
