Acer Aspire 5516 Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to connect to your router. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your laptop.
How do you know when your wireless card needs replacing?
- The laptop wireless driver cannot be installed
- Your wireless internet connection disconnects and reconnects during the day
- Your WiFi in your Acer laptop will not connect to your router anymore
