SOURCE: I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TURN ON THE WIRELESS

[1] make sure the switch for you wireless network is turned on, and I think it is either located between the screen joints and the keyboard, or right on the side of the computer [the side that always faces you when the computer is on the laps]. Next, check to see if it has detected any wireless Networks, you could do this by right clicking the icon for the wireless network, in your bottom right corner and clicking on 'view available wireless networks'. if they do not show, you will have to refresh. When the links are listed, select the one you wish yo connect to and click 'connect'. if it needs authentication, you'll have to provide a network key

wireless capability on my acer laptop is a switch that you toggle on the front of the computer.

I suspect that you just need to slide the switch over and release to turn the light on for WiFi and also to turn the WiFi capability on.

On my laptop aspire 5517 the light at the wireless switch does not come on and i cannot connect to the internet by wireless

most acer laptops are like that, you have to turn the wireless system via software, check for the device applications for the wireless device and it will help you whether it is connected or not.

if not,

reinstall the Operating system again.

My laptop has a built-in Wireless Internet card, a Broadcom I think, and it will not connect to my router. My router is a Westell VersaLink 327W with wireless capabilites. I don;t know what knid of Acer is...

I think youre in luck. The driver for your Broadcom wireless card is not contained in Windows 7. You can download the updated driver by going here.

You should be able to simply download the .zip, extract it to your desktop and let it install itself but if you need additional help installing the driver manually, please let me know.

Hope this helps!
