The Acer Aspire 5315-2153 notebook was designed with a built-in 802.11b/g Wireless LAN card. The wireless card is typically enabled using a small toggle switch located at the front, left of the PC.

The switch moves to the left and has what appears to be a "satellite dish" icon stenciled just to the right of it.

Toggle once to turn the card on and again to turn it off.

SOURCE: how to connect to router wirelessly...

Check your Wifi switch if it is turned on or not. Normally, you will see an orange LED blinking or steady if it is turned on. Check if the WLAN card is disabled at the Device Manager. Right click it and choose ENABLE. If it is enabled, right click WLAN icon at the system tray (can be found near the digital clock) and click on Properties. Click on TCP/IP properties and check if the AUTO-OBTAIN IP ADDRESS and AUTO-OBTAIN DNS SERVER is checked.
If the problem still persists, ask physical assistance to any IT support person.

I can not connect wireless internet

Hello !

In the front of your notebook, to the left of the right speaker is a switch which controls wireless access. Be certain that the switch is "on".

If still a problem, things to consider: Was it accidentally disabled in the BIOS? Did it ever work? Does the Adapter show up in Device Manager? Do other computers nearby connect ?

So, please let us know and provide more details if necessary.

Hope this helps.
