    Hi

    almost all laptops should have a wireless switch some where on or around the keyboard some say it can be just above the keyboard at least one key on or around the keyboard should have a picture on it that looks like a little satalite dish if it is not a slide key then it should be maybe FN F2 or FN=the key that has the picture on it


    launch manager should be somewhere in your program list or in accessories

    start
    program


    also i believe if you have a look in acer management you may find somewhere to install
    from there

    plese keep us posted on how you are getting on with it

    many thanks

Wifi is a just mode of connectivity, does your wifi access point or router has connection to internet ?
if yes there is configuration issue most like gateway ip address
if no its obvious u should get a internet connection
wifi is nothing but a Wireless local area network

I have an Acer aspire one netbook and the wifi connects with my router no problem, but when i try to type in any website, it says: the adress is not valid. I know it is not my router or my internet...

Open network connections and see if the internet connection is enabled. If not, right click and choose enable. If this is the first time you've tried connecting to internet with Acer, then you can run through the internet connection wizard to set things up.
