Acer :: Aspire 4720Z Wifi

Dec 23, 2009

I am using NETGEAR wifi router configured to use WPA2-PSK encryption ; All other laptop & phone are working on this setting.

4720Z is detecting the network but it is unable to connect, Even it didn't ask for 'KEY' when I tried to connect to my network.

It just says ''Windows unable to connect...."

OS : WinXP Media Center Edition.
Acer Aspire 4720Z
WIFI Card; Atheros AR5007EG

Acer :: 4720Z Wifi Card Goes Poof

Apr 29, 2008

I did some searching and couldn't find the cause for my 4720Z's wifi card just disappearing about twice a day!

I'm still running Vista Premium but I have something deleting the Wifi adapter from Device Hardware list about, at least once per day, and not at the same time each day.

I don't know if billy is just throwing a tantrum or which software / hardware (could be Acer installed stuff for either or both!) As mr gates doesn't like other people installing anything but what he sales!

So I start out in Safe Mode, and my audio doesn't work, but my wifi card can be used and doesn't go POOF!

I flip a coin on what I'm going to live without, audio or wifi!

The 4720Z is 3mos old and has been doing the magic trick with the wifi card ever since the 2nd or 3 wk, and I don't know how to find the conflict?

Acer :: Aspire 4720Z Graphics Upgrade

Feb 12, 2008

if it's possible to upgrade my laptop's graphics, because I'm attempting to play a few games on it, and it runs them sooo slow. I don't think the Processor or RAM are an issue, but surely the GFX card is. Another thought I had was maybe upgrading my RAM to 2 GB, which could possibly give it a boost because I think my vid card draws some memory from the system?

I Formatted my laptop and installed windows XP (was a successful install) But my problem is....none of my hardware is installed. The WNet doesn't work, Vid Card isn't installed, nor is the Sound Card, and any other hardware that I'm forgetting that also needs to be installed (nothing is installed).

Acer :: To Boost The Video Memory In Bios On The Aspire 4720Z

Feb 19, 2008

Is there anyway to boost the Video memory in Bios on the Aspire 4720Z?

My laptop says it has 384 MB available...But It's only using 10 MB. Is there anyway to increase this to the max, so it will take away from my system memory, which is 2 GB?

Here is a SS.

As you can see...The minimum, maximum, and graphics memory actually in use.

Acer :: Aspire 4720z S-VideoWill It Work With Composite Adapter

Aug 31, 2008

I have an Acer Aspire 4720z notebook and decided to hook it up to my tv. So I got my 7-pin to composite adapter which came with my video card for my desktop and plugged it in to give it a shot to see if it would work and no go, it just won't detect being connected to the tv. I read the manual and searched online to see if this perticular notebook allowed for s-video to composite or if Acer made one for it themselves, again no go. So I was wondering if anyone has this notebook, or the 4710 or 4720 which I think are identical hardware wise, are able to connect one to it and actually get it working?

it uses a mobile intel 965 express graphics chipset.

Acer Aspire 4720Z :: After Formatting And Putting Windows 7 Wireless Adapter Cannot Be Found

Oct 19, 2014

I have an Acer Aspire 4720Z. Since long I had been using XP. Recently it was formatted and Windows 7 was installed. But after this upgradation, the WLAN is not working. Have banged my head with drivers and all.
 
Device manager is showing Microsoft Virtual Wi-Fi miniport adapter (although with XP it simply showed by the name of WLAN adapter as far as I remember). And checking it's properties it says that the device is working properly. When Intel Wi-Fi Technology is tried to get started, it says that 'A supported intel wireless network adapter not found'.

Acer :: Will Aspire One Mini Xp Have Wifi

Nov 26, 2008

The model I am looking to get is the Acer Aspire One 160gb 6 celled battery, 8.9" 1gb Ram WinXP based system.

After reading a bit about people having connectivity problems (very big deal for me in a laptop), I'm scared on whether or not I should buy it. Everything else looked great but I don't really know Acer at all, so the idea that they could have shipped out defective Wifi chips and not fix it due to costs could be a reality.

However, when looking at reviews, it seems like everyone who is having these problems have 1) the LINUX version, and 2) the NON-6 celled battery version (120gb Aspire 512 ram 349$ version) and no one seems to differentiate between these (I don't know if it actually makes a difference though).

So, are there connectivity problems on the Acer Aspire One or is this an isolated problem that could happen to all notebooks?

Acer :: Aspire One Wireless (new WiFi Module)

Oct 18, 2008

The Aspire One is a great machine that, for me, was mildly crippled by a finicky Wi-Fi connection. There has been some discussion about this on other parts of the web. For some people, the actual wireless module turns on and off occasionally. For other people, the wireless connects and works just fine, but then won't work for a few minutes - but doesn't disconnect from the router. After a brief wait, the internet works again.

I had the problem of the module remaining connected but not working. Fooling with various settings helped, but it was still not as good as it should be, so I decided to replace the module with an Intel 4965AGN wireless module. This is the easiest fix for those who have this problem and have been frustrated by a solution. I say "easy," because it was easy to spend $35 for the module on eBay and install it, rather than spend another 3 hours fiddling with the settings.

I followed the disassembly guide here to take the keyboard and top panel off. This guide is great, and the author did a nice job with the descriptions..............

Acer :: Aspire 5613 Wifi Upgrade

Sep 30, 2008

I`m trying to upgrade my 5613 wifi.

Ordered a new Atheos mini pci card.

After installing the new card the computer says "no wireless device"..

I cant turn on the wifi card from the button on the front.

Tried to update both drivers and bios without any luck.

Changed back to the old card, and this has also the same problem now!

Tried to delete device in device manager and do a new installation...

Still the same.....

So now I cant get my wifi to work!

Anyone knows if its possible to upgrade the wifi on a 5613 to N?

Acer :: Aspire 4730 And 4730Z WiFi

Apr 11, 2009

I have both a 4730 and 4730z. The network cards are not identical but my issue is. I'm trying to connect to my 5GHz N network from the Netgear WNDR3300 router. Neither system displays this network in the available networks display. I can only see the 2.4GHz network. I have tested the router with a Toshiba wireless N and an HP g. Both of these laptops can view both networks and connect to the N 5GHz network. The Toshiba, since it is an N, can connect at the higher speed. The HP can connect to it but will only connect at the g speed. So I do not believe I have a problem with the router. I have been trying to get a response from Acer tech support for 2 days;

Acer :: Aspire 5044 WiFi - Windows 7 RC

May 11, 2009

Before I start I know exactly what a RC version of the OS is and that it is expected to have bugs and other annoyance, as well as no official driver support etc.

But wondering if anybody has a fix to this problem:

The laptop is an Acer Aspire 5044 WLMi, 1.8ghz Turion, 1.5GB Ram, 80GB HDD. Windows 7 has installed correctly and is running. Drivers for all the hardware have been successfully installed and the laptop is running just as well as a Windows XP fresh install.

Only problem is that although the Wireless Card (Atheros AR5005G) is showing as functioning correctly in Device manager, the laptop is not picking up the wireless network in our house even, no matter where I take the laptop to................
