You are better off buying a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because all you need to know is the current operating system on your Compaq laptop. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your wireless router or modem. Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest.
Symptoms your wireless internet adapter is in need of replacing
- The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The WiFi adapter in your Compaq laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
- Your wireless internet connection goes out randomly during the day
