Searching for a new adapter is simple due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. It will be easier to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your wireless router or modem.
