In my sky high arrogance I thought 'I have never let Linux grace my devices, how hard can Qubes/Whonix truly be?' and I learned my lesson within minutes.

So I come here before you, humbly and beaten by 0s and 1s, to ask for your help.

How do I open a window where it neatly lists available connections and, if so, my current connection?

Usually when I am connected, it has a wifi symbol on the top right where the rest of my panels are. It disappeared.

I tried searching on the internet for answers. My mental capacity is basically non-existent, otherwise I wouldn't be here (probably).

Please. I just want to connect my device via wifi. I do not own an ethernet cable.

Thank you.
