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. It will be easier to buy a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the current operating system on your laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to talk to your wireless router or modem.
