Acer Aspire 5553G 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. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to connect to your wireless router or modem. Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
Subtle hints the wireless card is dying
- The laptop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The wireless signal drops multiple times over and over again
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
