A lot of newer wireless 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. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses an adapter to communicate with your home router. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is what OS you are running on your Apple laptop. 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.
Some warnings the wireless card should need replacing
- Your wireless internet connection disconnects and reconnects all the time
- The WiFi adapter in your Apple laptop is unable to connect to the internet
- The WiFi adapter driver gives errors when installing
