Compaq Presario 7800 Wifi
Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your desktop. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to connect to your router and modem.
Cues of a worsening WiFi adapter
- Your WiFi on your desktop is unable to find a signal from your router
- The wireless adapter driver cannot be installed
- The wireless signal drops multiple times all the time
