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:
