Compaq Presario 1400 Wifi
Searching for a new adapter is simple because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Compaq laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter to send and receive signals to and from your router and modem. A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. You are better off buying a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
How do you know when your onboard WiFi is in need of replacing?
- The wireless adapter driver cannot be installed
- The wireless adapter in your Compaq laptop will not connect to your router anymore
- The WiFi disconnects itself during the day
