D_block Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 i recently did a clean install on an acer one d255 netbook , after i reinstalled the wireless and lan drivers ( atheros) i realize that the machine is not detected my home network or the other two from the neighbour. ive since updated the bios on the machine and updated / uninstalled re installed through device manager/ installed the driver from the acer support website, same problem . sometimes on a cold boot it recognizes it and works other times it doesnt . when i check the device manager it looks as if everything is fine with the hardware . the task bar msg when hovering over with the cursor says that there is no wireless network available. * cant remember the exact wordin* but thats what it says basically .. so before i order a replacement from amazon, im looking for a second opinion . prior to the clean install it was workin, but the machine had drastically slowed down and was exibiting wired symtoms any thoughts appriciated guys thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponch Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 prior to the clean install it was workin if it ain't broken... We've all been there.Do you have any mean to reapply the manufacturer's image for test ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
