Dell Dimension 8200 Wifi
Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your router. It will be easier to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Dell laptop.
