Dell Inspiron 17 3721 Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your home network. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your laptop. A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. It is much simpler to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
What are the clues to watch out for to know my wireless internet adapter is on its last leg?
- The WiFi drops multiple times throughout the day
- The wireless adapter on your laptop does not connect at all
- The laptop wireless driver cannot be installed
