Acer Aspire 5710 WLAN?
      #392757 - Sat Apr 26 2008 10:35 AM

I've just got an Acer Aspire 5710 laptop which says it has Wireless enabled but when i try and use it, it says that it cant find it? There's a Broadcom wireless adapter in Device Manager and was disabled so re-enabled but still doesn't work. There's also a wireless button on the laptop when pressed also says no wireless.

I've tried installing the official driver from the Acer site for it but when installing it says that the card is not installed.

Also, slightly off topic but my DVD drive doesn't show up anywhere!

Cheers

Sounds like the wireless card is faulty.

Is this a new computer?

Have you tried finding the latest drivers for the card?
