Wireless card is not detected on ubuntu and fedora
I'm currently running fedora 27 on an Acer Aspire Switch One SW1-011 (https://www.notebookcheck.info/Acer-Aspire-Switch-One-10-SW1-011-11AN.231024.0.html)

Have you seen these threads? They might apply to your situation as well: Wifi not working on Realtek rtl8723be wifi adapter and How do I get a Realtek RTL8723BE wireless card to work? ... I know yours is the 8723BS, but the solutions suggested there could likely address your situation until the upstream bugs are fixed.

It possible that the hardware is fully proprietary or just block.
lspci -k
-k option show kernel driver handling each device as explain in the manual
then
rfkill unblock all && rm -rf /dev/rfkill && reboot
That will unblock all things from rfkill that could be block by default
