Dell Alienware M15X Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter to communicate with your router. Most USB wireless 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. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because the only thing you have to know is what OS you are running on your laptop. It is much simpler to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
