Move your cursor to the top right corner, click search and type "cmd".
Right click and select "Run as admin"
Type " ipconfig /all " (without the quote).
Copy that info and post.
Uninstalling driver:
Move the cursor to bottom left corner, right click, select "Device Manager", right click "Wireless Network Adapter" and uninstall.
No problems showing in the ipconfig but I need the specs on the router such as, make, model, version number so as to track down firmware or check for compatibility. Many problems in this area with Windows 8 due to changes in the network stack.
It would also be helpful if you could install the InSSIDer for home software and post a screen shot of the results here. This will give me a picture of the wireless network signal and more info.
I'm not seeing any real problems here besides the channel overlap so experimenting with a different channel may help.
You should go to the Acer site and look up drivers for your model number which is actually Acer Aspire V3-571, the latest drivers for Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 may help. Acer | Download
Hi Calmat,
Go to Device Manager(Right click bottom left corner), expand Network Adapters, right click the wireless adapter and uninstall. Then install the new driver.
