Acer Aspire E5-471 Wifi
Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter to send and receive signals to and from your wireless router or modem. It will be easier to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the current operating system on your laptop.
Clues your wireless internet adapter should need replacing
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop will not connect to your router anymore
- The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The WiFi disconnects itself throughout the day
