Acer TravelMate 8471 Wifi
Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because the only thing you have to know is the current operating system on your laptop. Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. It is much simpler to buy a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses a piece of hardware to send and receive signals to and from your home router.
Major signs your internal WiFi is in dire need of a replacement
- The WiFi adapter driver gives errors when installing
- The WiFi adapter in your Acer laptop is unable to connect to the internet
- Your wireless internet connection goes in and out over and over again
