NUC's --> Intel's Next Unit of Computing

I am having an issue with the network controller. I am on the Internet now but in Device Manager, it shows the network controller is not there. I have reinstalled, removed, reinstalled the OS and cannot get that to go away.

More info: 64 bit, Windows 7 pro
