Dell OptiPlex XE2 Wifi
A lot of newer 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 handle everything from there. It will be easier to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your home network. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the operating system that is installed on your Dell desktop.
How can I tell if my wireless internet adapter is about to stop working?
- The wireless adapter in your Dell desktop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- The desktop wireless driver shows it as not installed
- The wireless signal goes in and out all the time
