    I have just purchased this computer and out of the box I am having an issue with the wireless networking.

    At first I was able to connect for about 30 minutes before the connection dropped, then I reset my wireless router and tried again and connected for another few minutes. It then disconnected again and since then has not been able to connect to the wireless network.

    I talked to Acer support and received no help. I tried all of their suggestions including a factory restore to no avail.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You could try different channels, check whether the wireless driver is up to date.
    Is the connection with Ethernet stable?
    EDIT: Reset your router to factory state, remove wireless network from your laptop and start afresh. When resetting your router, you may have to re-enter your user name password etc.
