    There is no gateway lt2030, it's either a lt20 or a lt30.
    http://us.gateway.com/gw/en/US/content/drivers-downloads

    The lt20 has no drivers for windows 7, only xp. If your netbook is a lt20, try the wifi drivers for the lt30. There are 3 possible drivers, depending on the wifi card in your netbook.

    Here's the Gateway site for drivers:
    http://us.gateway.com/gw/en/US/content/drivers-downloads

    See the screenshot of LT Netbooks. They don't list a LT2030 model. Nor does their search yield a LT2030. Try searching there using your netbook serial #.

    They used to make an LT2030u netbook with an Intel Atom CPU & chipset. Chance are your wifi adapter is an Intel. If cannot find the drivers at the Gateway site then go to Intel's site & use their ID utility to list the hardware and the needed drivers.
