Dell XPS M1530 Wifi
You are better off buying a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to connect to your home router. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Dell laptop.
Major symptoms the WiFi adapter will eventually need to be replaced
- The wireless signal goes in and out over and over again
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- The laptop wireless driver shows it as not installed
