Acer TravelMate 5230 Wifi
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. Most USB wireless 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 because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to send and receive signals to and from your home network.
Easy warnings of a poorly working onboard WiFi
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
- The wireless adapter in your Acer laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
- Your WiFi signal drops multiple times throughout the day
