Compaq Presario CQ42 Wifi
A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and 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 home network. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Compaq Presario CQ42. You are better off buying a new USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
What happens when my onboard WiFi really needs to be replaced?
- The WiFi adapter in your Compaq laptop will not connect to your router anymore
- Your WiFi signal drops for no reason all the time
- The laptop wireless driver shows it as not installed
