Hi!

Im trying to get my wifi to work on a Acer Aspire ES 15, but had no luck so far. I dont know the name of it. someone that can help me explain what to do? It's not installed so i missing the driver for it.
The iso i used for my computer was debian-9.2.1-amd64-netinst.iso

Wifi was working in Ubuntu, but had so many problems with it so wanted to try Debian instead.
The only driver i can find is for windows 10. Name of the driver:

Date:
2016/08/19
Version:
12.0.0.255
