Compaq Presario CQ60 Wifi
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 laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to communicate with your home router. Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
Major indications the wireless card should need replacing
- The wireless adapter in your Compaq laptop does not connect at all
- The wireless signal goes in and out all the time
- The WiFi adapter driver shows it as not installed
