Wireless Network Card

The wireless feature (Wireless LAN) on an Acer notebook allows you to connect to available networks. This convenience allows you to use the Internet with network cables, modems or network installation. Acer laptops come with a wireless switch to turn the wireless feature on or off. Once you enable the wireless feature, your Acer notebook can connect to wireless networks within range.


Follow these Instructions

Locate the Wireless LAN switch located on the front of your Acer Notebook. Move the switch to the right to turn on Wireless connections.

Right-click the network icon located on the system tray next to the clock. You should see a list of available wireless networks.

Select the network you want to connect to and click "Connect."

Check in the bottom right hand corner for another program that might be accessing the wireless hardware. Belkin (for example) often have their own connecting software that conflicts with the windows version.

How do you know your notebook is connected to your wifi AP? Did you try pinging the gateway? If not, open your command window & type "ping 192.168.0.1" (put in your own gateway address.) If you get replies, then ping something outside of your network: "ping 4.2.2.2" (this is a verizon dns server). If you get replies, then "ping yahoo.com". If it does not fail at any of the above steps, you don't have a connectivity problem. If you fail any of the above, then report back & we'll continue the troubleshooting.

it kinda sounds like wires that go to a wireless network card. there is a little copper connector in this pic. does it look like that? http://www.laptopguts.co.uk/ekmps/shops/laptopguts/images/hp-compaq-nx6110-laptop-internal-wireless-lan-aerials-6036a0009101-2253-p.jpg

did u setup the network TCP/IP setting...and provide the IP address and other DNS address etc

it will remain yellow while u'r system is not connected with any wireless network. once it connects to any then the color will change.

Sounds like your computer has been compermized, try to run a virus/spyware scan.

If your wireless network adapter is OK then :-
If your wireless connection is on the Task Bar the right click on this Icon and left click on REPAIR.
If no Icon on Task Bar the click on Control Panel - Network Connections - then right click on your LAN Connection and left click on REPAIR.
This will get your wireless router to issue your wireless card with a new IP address.

4) recommend reinstall your windows.
