Dell Latitude D505 Wifi
Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is what OS you are running on your Dell laptop. You are better off buying a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses an adapter in order to connect to your router and modem. A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own.
What to see if the wireless internet adapter is on its last leg?
- The WiFi drops for no reason throughout the day
- The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
- Your WiFi in your Dell laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
