Dell Vostro 1540 Wifi
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. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to connect to your home router. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Dell 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.
Hints the wireless card is dying
