Acer TravelMate 4050 Wifi
Most USB wireless 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. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because all you need to know is the operating system that is installed on your Acer laptop. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your home network. You are better off buying a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
