These were transferred via USB and installed with sudo dpkg -i [package name]. Then, the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOneAOD250?action=show&redirect=AspireOne%2FAOD250 were followed to activate the Atheros atl1e network card driver. Finally, after a sudo apt-get update, the proprietary Broadcom wireless drivers were downloaded and activated through the icon on Ubuntu's panel.
