Compaq Presario XL380 Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your router. 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. A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. It will be easier to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
Important signs your wireless internet adapter is in need of replacing
- Your WiFi in your Compaq laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
- Your wireless internet connection drops multiple times during the day
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
