Dell Vostro 260S Wifi
Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because the only thing you have to know is what OS you are running on your Dell Vostro 260S. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to communicate with your router. Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
Key clues of an inadequate wireless card
- The WiFi adapter driver shows it as not installed
- The wireless adapter on your desktop will not connect to your router anymore
- Your WiFi signal drops multiple times all the time
