i downloaded the drivers from the main site but i did not understand correctly how to install on Lubuntu 14.04.
What's the correct way?

Thanks!
I suspect that your wireless has the driver it needs, rt73usb. A wireless interface wlan0 is present. However, you are unable to select an available network because of a bug in lubuntu.
To fix the Network Manager not showing up on the panel issue, from the Lubuntu menu select Preferences > Default applications for LXSession, then click on the Autostart tab and under "Manual autostarted applications" type "nm-applet", then click the "+ Add" button on the left.
Now log out, log back in and you should see the Network Manager icon on the panel: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/04/fix-lubuntu-1404-network-manager.html
Once the Network Manager icon appears, select 'Enable Networking' and 'Enable Wireless.'
