    Hello all,


    Laptop: Acer aspire V15 nitro black edition using windows 10


    Issue: my atheros qualcomm wireless network adapter is not visible under network adapters, therefore unable to connect to any wifi.


    I have tried

    • Performing network reset from Network & internet status menu. This has actually resolved the problem before but now it longer works having performed system restore.

    • System restore made problem worse, have tried reversing restore.
    • Tried changing WWAN autoconfig service to automatic
    • performed reset via command prompt
    • when adapter was visible i tried reinstalling driver and changing power settings.


    Problem seems to be on startup, it persists if resolved. Could driver be corrupt? How would i install new driver if i cannot connect to the internet?


    considered getting a usb wireless adapter, although not a resolution, would it give me wifi for now?

    :)

  2. Wireless adapter missing.

    Hello,

    I have an Acer Aspire E5 574G laptop with Windows 10. I purchased it last June. Off late the laptop wont connect to the Wireless Network. On further troubleshooting i discovered that the wireless network adapter is missing from network connections. I am
    able to browse the internet via a plugged in ethernet adapter. My wireless router is working fine as i am able to connect my other portable devices to it. Something that i have noticed is the wifi adapter sometimes appears after not using my laptop for a while.
    But then again after a cold boot the wifi adapter mysteriously disappears. Is this an Windows issue or a hardware problem?. Kindly advise.

    Thank you in advance.

    Acer One 10 Wireless Adapter Missing

    Good Afternoon everyone,

    I've got a friends Acer One 10 S1002 tablet(with detacheable keyboard) and she's having issues with her wireless. It stopped working shortly after the upgrade to windows 10. According to Acer support, it should handle windows 10 100%.

    Here's where it gets wierd.
    If i try to change adapter settings, i cant see anything listed for network adapters, but if i go to device manager, i can see the adapter, and it appears to have no issues. It has the latest driver installed, and rolling back is not an option. I've tried disabling/enabling the adapter, but nothing changes.

    I haven't fully tested it, but the bluetooth appears to be fully functional.

    Googling a similar issue it seems that people with this issue have remedied it by forcing a shutdown, which did not help me at all. I've also got the latest BIOS installed.

    In case anyone suggests it, there is not way to get a wired connection to this thing from adapters that i have.

    Which network adapter?

    My friend recently came over to my house with his laptop. Before I could connect him to my lan he detected several wireless networks in the area. I want to connect to these wireless networks, but I don't know what kind of adapter I need. I searched his laptop model and this is his network adapter http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/products/wireless/wireless_n/overview.htm

    It seems he could get both N, and G signals

    what would any of you guys suggest?
