    Just picked up a netbook..acer aoa 150.

    The wifi works fine and connection speed is good, but the range is significantly shorter than my Gateway laptop.

    Is this normal? I tried 2 different drivers...the one that came with the computer and one from the Acer website which, based on the numbers, appears to be an earlier version....No change in data transmission speed or range.

    Is there something wrong with my netbook? Should I trade it in for a different one and see?
