Brand new to Linux and just installed Ubuntu using the Wubi Installer. I'm trying to connect to my wifi network but it won't connect. It sees the network, it just can't connect.

My computer is a Gateway NV57H96U. I installed 12.10.

Here's the information for my computer. I hope it's the correct information, rather new at this stuff:
