No wifi adapter available in device manager

Optiplex 5000 Tower

Optiplex 5000 Tower

I've just unpacked my new computer. After setting it up, I'm unable to locate the Wi-Fi icon. Upon checking the Device Manager-Network Adapters, I noticed there's no wireless card listed. I even explored the hidden devices, but couldn't find any wireless or Bluetooth options. I purchased this computer on Amazon, where it was advertised as having Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities.

How should I fixed this issue?

If the system was sold as new by Amazon, you can use the system service tag (do not post it here) to search on Dell Support site https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us.  Under quick links, select View product specs.  Then, click on Expand All to see your system configurations.  You can find out if the system was originally shipped with WiFi + Bluetooth or not.

If you purchased the system from Amazon market place from a third party seller, you can contact the seller directly for a remedy option.
