Hi, Your Aspire One is a different model. :-(
The one I have is a D250-1924. It has a Qualcomm Atheros AR8132. And although a couple drivers saw they are for it. Only the one worked. It took me a long time to find a working driver for that Netbook. But, it was worth it. Overall, it makes a nice little DOS machine. Sorry, you’re going to need to keep looking. Hopefully, that one you are looking will work. You may need to do the ODI/NDIS wrapper thing. I’ve never needed to do it. But, I’m sure someone in here knows how to use those.
