Acer Extensa 5420 Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to communicate with your router and modem. It will be easier to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-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. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the current operating system on your Acer laptop.
Do you know if your WiFi adapter is not working right?
- Your wireless internet connection goes out randomly throughout the day
- The laptop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop will not connect to your router anymore
