Compaq Presario 700 Wifi
It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to communicate with your home network. Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is the current operating system on your Compaq laptop.
Main clues the wireless card has to be replaced
- The wireless signal goes in and out all the time
- The laptop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
