Acer TravelMate 290 Wifi
It will be easier to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because all you need to know is the current operating system on your Acer laptop. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter to communicate with your home router. A lot of newer 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 operating system will take care of the rest.
What are the indications that my wireless internet adapter is failing?
- Your wireless internet connection goes in and out over and over again
- Your WiFi on your laptop does not connect at all
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
