Networking :: Acer Aspire One connection

I just got an Acer Aspire One AOA 150-1777 portable computer.

I installed 4.4.10 to a USB flash-RAM "drive".
And booted the netbook from the USB drive.

But I can't connect either via Ethernet or wireless.
ifconfig -a shows only a lo , with no inet address.

Please help.

Thanks.

See if your network card is recognised.
Control Panel > System Stats > PCI
ethernet Controller: Realtek .. or whatever..
