Compaq Presario 2500 Wifi

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. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to talk to your router and modem. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.

Your WiFi on your laptop will not connect to your router anymore
Your wireless internet connection goes out randomly during the day
The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
