Hi,

Go to Acer support site, download the WiFi driver, save it on Desktop or any convenient place for you to access, go to Device manager(right click windows logo at bottom far left), expand Network adapters, right click your WiFi adapter, go to properties, uninstall the driver in Drver tab.

Reboot and let Windows install the WiFi driver, if that doesn't work, manually install the driver downloaded from:
