Have you installed SP2 or SP3 yet? SP2 added WPA support and SP3 included the update for WPA2.

I always do installs and related updates using a LAN cable and I'd advise you to do the same.
Wireless I don't even look at until the end.

An ISO file is supposed to be an image of the contents of a CD http://pcsupport.about.com/od/termsi/g/isofile.htm . If what is on the CD is an ISO file itself then you made a mistake when creating ("burning") the CD. Your burning software should have 'decompressed' the contents of the ISO file.

And if you can't figure that out just let Windows Update download and install it.
