Compaq 1600-XL256 Wifi

It is much simpler to buy a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to talk to your home router. 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. Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own.

What are the indications that my wireless internet adapter has to be replaced?

The WiFi adapter driver gives errors when installing
The wireless signal drops for no reason all the time
The WiFi adapter on your laptop does not connect at all
