This is one of the reasons people need Boot Camp to install Windows on Apple hardware - to get the proprietary drivers needed for Apple's hardware - including the wireless adapter.


Basically at this point you need to find out what wifi controller you have and get a Windows driver for it. You will need to find a Windows user forum or even a Hackintosh forum to help you. The latest Windows Support Software download I know of available directly from Apple without using BootCamp is old and designed for Windows 7 - 8.1.
