    Hi all,

    I just installed Win7 on my aspire One and love it so far. I am having a problem with large file transfers over a network. When my AA1 had XP file transfer worked flawlessly. Ever since updatingto W7 I can't transfer a large file (few hundred mb). Any ideas? I have the latest driver from windows update and as I said the card worked fine under Win XP.

    Cheers

    I cannot get the Win7 built-in driver to work at all with my router (Netgear DG834Gv4). The Atheros v7.6.1.221 driver pack works fine for me though.

    I can connect to my router and my wirelss network at work. The problem I have is the constant connection dropouts. Liek I said it wasn't a problem when I was running Win XP so it must be a Win 7 problem.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Works perfectly for me on Win7 RC (build 7100). (transferred 7.2 GB of Battlestar Galactica episodes over Wi-Fi using the build in Atheros with the driver supplied by Windows Update)
    I am using a D-Link DIR-655 router in b/g mode. (Don't have any N capable hardware but need the throughput of the DIR-655 for my Fiber to the Home Internet)
