Alienware 17 R1 Wifi

Most new Wifi 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 handle everything from there. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to connect to your router. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your laptop. It will be easier to buy a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.

What warnings should I watch out for to know if my wireless card is in need of replacing?

Your WiFi signal drops for no reason every day
The WiFi adapter driver gives errors when installing
The WiFi adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
