Usually NetworkManager is included with the Linux distribution that you've installed. If not, you can use that distribution's package manager or command-line tools to install NetworkManager. For Ubuntu/Debian-derived distributions, try the System menu, -> Administration, and then Synaptic Package Manager. Search for "network-manager" and check (or "mark for installation") it when it's found, then hit the Apply button and let the operation complete. For Fedora, choose System -> Administration -> Add/Remove software, then search for "NetworkManager", then check "NetworkManager" and "NetworkManager-gnome", then hit Apply and let the operation complete. Other distros have similar mechanisms for installing new software. Hope this helps!
