Acer TravelMate 4740ZG Wifi
A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to talk to your home router. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Acer laptop.
What are the signs that the wireless card is about to stop working?
- The wireless adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- Your WiFi signal goes out randomly all the time
- The laptop wireless driver shows it as not installed
