I've just bought a new laptop and installed Ubuntu 12.04 in it. My problem is that I can make a wired connection but not a wireless one. The wireless network is working okay with other computers but not with the new one. The new laptop can't detect it. Can anyone help me?
On a terminal, typing lspci the output is

Inspecting the drivers installed the one for the Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 8723 is not there. How do I install it?
Thank you
