Compaq Presario XL185 Wifi
It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter to communicate with your home network. Searching for a new adapter is simple due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the current operating system on your laptop.
Major signs the WiFi adapter will soon need to be replaced
- The wireless signal disconnects itself every day
- Your WiFi on your laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
