    I purchased this notebook roughly a month and a half ago which came bundled with Linux Lite which i happily got rid of because its not a good operating system for a Windows orientated person. I upgraded it to Windows Vista Home Premium and the installation was a success and i've installed all the drivers but it still wont connect to the internet. Sure it'll connect to the internet but wont let me browse so i don't know. Any help ?

    Also, i've already got the Atheros & Realtek Drivers installed on my Acer Aspire One A150-AW Netbook.
    Any help will be great.
    Thanks.

    then it`s not connecting to the internet , only your local network . i suggest you try to reinstall the drivers ? if that doesn`t work , try installing it manually using the device manager , and pointing it to the downloaded driver files.

    let me know if you have any more problems : )
