If you want to download and update your wireless adapter driver for your Acer computer, you’ve come to the right place! This post shows you how to download and update your Acer WiFi driver step by step.
The WiFi driver ensures your network adapter works properly in your computer and keeping your WiFi driver up to date will prevent many network problems.
How to download and update Acer WiFi drivers
Method 1: Download your Acer driver manually
You can download the WiFi driver for your Acer computer from the Acer website. You can search the Acer model for your device, then find the correct driver to download.
Take Aspire E5-411 notebook as an example:
1) Open the Acer support page in your browser.
2) Enter your Aspire E5-411 (your Acer device model) in the search box, or you can select your device model by filtering in the category.
3) After you open the support page for your Acer device, make sure the detected Operating System is correct. In my case it’s Windows 10 64 bit. Then click the Driver section.
4) Scroll down and click the Download button next to your wireless network adapter driver.
5) Run the downloaded file, and follow the on-screen instructions to install it.
This method takes time and computer skills. If you don’t have the time or patience, don’t worry. Try Method 2.
