If it finished downloading you still need to install it.

Go to your Downloads folder and double-click on the downloaded Atheros driver file to install. It's a zip so you'll have to extract it.

it now has 48 minutes to go...

whoop whoop...

while that's working how do I change the clock - control panel won't let me click on it for some reason....

ps thanks i know this must be frustrating for you, as i am clearly not safe to drive a PC...

Set the clock to automatically update from an internet time server. You've got about 46 minutes to Google that one!!

that made me laugh...

woo hoo - have sorted this now...

18 minutes to go - and it may be sorted... either that or it will go out the bloody window...

Virgin's Superhub is anything but "super" where wi-fi is concerned. Take a look at the official Virgin help forums for evidence of this. I just use the Superhub in modem mode and connect everything via ethernet and Homeplugs.

Is there a file called setup.exe?

no there is a compressed zipped

and a file folder under file type... (in my downloads file)

am i looking in the right place?

I'm downloading the zip to check but the Acer ftp server is painfully slow at 75KB/s, about 40 mins to go.

Is there a readme.txt file in the extracted list?
