Compaq 511 Wifi

A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. You are better off buying a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses an adapter in order to connect to your wireless router or modem. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Compaq 511.
