No networking on my hd1023

I did a unit setup for my hd1023 onto a microsd and plugged it into the unit.  I had it enabled for wireless and put in my network and password.  I also enabled for file serving but that is irrelevant for now it seems because it doesn't look like it is even trying to connect to the wireless.  First of all, I assume this unit has wireless networking builtin?  It talks about being able to attach an antenna but I assume that is for better signal?

The wireless blue light does not flash or come on or anything.  After plugging in, the busy light flashes and then goes off and the power light stays green.  No error light at all and no blue wireless light.  If I boot it up without the microsd card (after booting with it), I do see my splash screen logo and then it says to insert a storage device. 

So my first issue is just getting it to connect to wireless.

    You have to order the unit with wifi or you must by and install the module.  No antenna means no wifi module so no wifi.  These are $50 and easy to install.  I have found them to have good range and good reliability.
