Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your home router. It will be easier to buy a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
What are the clues to watch out for to know my WiFi adapter is in need of a replacement?
- The wireless signal goes in and out every day
- Your WiFi in your Compaq laptop will not connect to your router anymore
- The WiFi adapter driver gives errors when installing
