I loaded Ubuntu 12.04 on a partition along with Windows 7. The Wi-Fi works well 
with Windows. That is why I listed the specs. I don't know for sure how to 
configure my Linux network. 

A couple of years ago, I had stumbled upon a way to make my older Toshiba 
laptop work using Linux. That was a process, but it finally worked well. I 
ended up removing Windows from the hard drive entirely. Later, it stopped 
working altogether and I've been using Windows on an Acer laptop listed below:
