Compaq Presario 1600-XL143 Wifi
It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your wireless router or modem. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because the only thing you have to know is what OS you are running on your Compaq Presario 1600-XL143.
How can I tell if my wireless card will soon go out?

- The laptop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
