You might need to use testing images before stable images, as stable might be too old for your computer. I had this problem with a PackardBell notebook, which used kernel 3.2.0 for installation. This one did not see the network device (neither lan nor wlan). With testing and 3.13-1 this problem did not appear. Everything worked fine. Maybe I should suggest to use at least a newer kernel for installer CD's to the installer team? Good luck!
