I would be very surprised if there are enough details about the problem
there for anyone to diagnose it. We need more details about what you
have tried to do and what has gone wrong. 

Ubuntu comes with network manager for controlling connections to
wireless networks, and this should be in the system tray, if you click
on it you should get a list of available networks. Do you see "Wireless
Networks" as a line in that list.

If it is an irreparable problem with the built in wireless you can
probably add a PCMCIA wireless card.
