Compaq Presario XL105 Wifi
A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses an adapter in order to talk to your wireless router or modem. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Compaq Presario XL105. You are better off buying a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
Major indications your wireless internet adapter is failing
- Your WiFi signal goes out randomly throughout the day
- Your WiFi on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
