Compaq 1600-XL150 Wifi
Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your laptop. Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter to send and receive signals to and from your home network.
Key signs of a bad WiFi adapter
- Your wireless internet connection has trouble connecting every day
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
- Your WiFi in your Compaq laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
