I believe that there is a problem with the Wireless LAN driver software of your Acer TravelMate 8472G. The driver might be corrupted or not functioning properly. Please reinstall the driver software for the LAN. You can download it from the support website of Acer. You can also choose from Atheros, Broadcom and Intel. These are the download links:

The rest of the driver software can be downloaded here:
