if you type lspci in your terminal, you will get long output text. It is your hardware information, includes network hardware. For example this is mine:

07:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Limited BCM43142 802.11b/g/n (rev 01)
09:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 07)

Network controller is your wireless network device. You can search for its driver on linux. I can find my driver using apt
