Hi,
In some Acer models, there is a software switch in Start/All
Programs/Acer Launch Manager. If this is missing, you need to reinstall
since even with the WiFi hard switch activated, this application is required. This is so especially if a
new/clean/OEM install of the OS has been done on the laptop.
In some models, there is a hard switch either at the front or at the side to activate the internal wifi (and bluetooth). Still in other, there is button on the leading edge of the computer which also serves as an indicator lamp,
Some models also have WiFI enable/disable in the BIOS/CMOS setup.
Still others have a button along with the Easy-launch strip (top) together with the those for email , bluetooth , Acer Arcade & others.
As shown above, depending on the specific model/region version of your laptop, the WifI activation can be varied.
Hope this be of help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards.

There is another driver for this laptop that's a different type of wifi card.

that's one but that's for WinXP
Here's a site where all the drivers for that particular model

You can go down by each one until you find the correct driver or you can take off the wifi cover under the laptop and look at the wifi card and it will tell you which model it is so that you won't have to try each one till you find the correct driver.
Happy Holiday

There is not only Realtek, but two more, i.e. Atheros and Intel. You better install all of them and check which one will work.
Click here to download Realtek Wireless driver
Click here to download Atheros Wireless driver
Click here to download Intel Wireless driver
All these are for Windows 7 32 bit platform (s)
If you've already installed some or part of the above drivers, please uninstall them (installed drivers), restart your computer and install all these.
Let me know if the problem persists.
Good luck.
Thanks for using FixYa.
