Gateway EC18T Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your wireless router or modem. Searching for a new adapter is simple because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Gateway laptop. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may 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 system will install the drivers automatically.
General warnings of a laboring onboard WiFi
