Dell XPS 17 L701X Wifi
Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Dell XPS 17 L701X. A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. You are better off buying a new USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to send and receive signals to and from your wireless router or modem.
Some clues of a poorly performing onboard WiFi
- Your WiFi in your Dell laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- Your wireless internet connection goes in and out throughout the day
- The laptop wireless driver gives errors when installing
