    We will need a lot more information.

    What computer?  What Operating System? How are you 'connected' to the internet?  What error messages etc?

    You didn't tell us which Aspire One.  You also didn't tell us in your first posting that you had deleted the driver and therefore that is why you couldn't get access.  It makes it really hard to respond without detailed pertinent information from you.  Your question probably is: Where can I get the wireless driver, vendor xxxx,  for my Aspire One, Model yyyy, Windows 7, 32 bit.

     

    Some model have wireless drivers available in Support for several vendors (Atheros, Broadcom, Intel, Realtek); other models don't (US site). If the US site doesn't have them for your model, you might try the UK site or another country.

    Good hunting.

    Hi..

     

    You may run the below mentioned hardware vendor utility to find the correct device manufacturer

    http://global-download.acer.com/FilesDownload/HWID/HWVendorDetection.exe

     

    Use the following steps to restore drivers and application from eRecovery:

    1. Click Start, and then All programs.
    2. Click Acer and then Acer eRecovery Management. You could be prompted for a password. This password will be necessary for future access to eRecovery, so it is recommended not to lose it.
    3. In the following window click Restore.
    4. Click Reinstall driver or application.
    5. Select Content and choose the driver or application you want to reinstall.
    6. On the right, click the installation link and follow the onscreen instructions.
    7. Your computer should restart once installation is complete. If it does not, please restart the system manually.

    Hi...

     

    The above mentioned steps to restore drivers and application from eRecovery does not require any disc or flash drive.

    To run the above utility you need to use a flash drive. 

    The above mwnetioned utility will let you know the correct name of the netrork vendor.

    You may download it on any computer and tansfer it to your computer.

    If you do not want to use a flash drive or disc, then r ecovery to factory settings is the only avaliable option.
