Compaq Presario 1650 Wifi
Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is what OS you are running on your laptop. Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-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. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses an adapter in order to connect to your router.
