Acer TravelMate 8172 Wifi
Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter to communicate with your router. Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. It will be easier to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
Important hints the wireless card should be replaced
- The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- Your WiFi in your Acer laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- Your WiFi signal goes in and out during the day
