Acer Aspire 5520G Wifi
Searching for a new adapter is simple because the only thing you have to know is what OS you are running on your Acer laptop. It is much simpler to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter to communicate with your home network. Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own.
What are the indications that my onboard WiFi has gone bad?
- Your WiFi signal drops for no reason during the day
- The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
