Lenovo Aptiva 2196 Wifi
Searching for a new adapter is simple due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is what OS you are running on your Lenovo desktop. Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. It is much simpler to buy a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses an adapter to send and receive signals to and from your wireless router or modem.
Subtle hints the wireless card needs a replacement ASAP
- The wireless signal goes out randomly all the time
- Your WiFi on your desktop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- The desktop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
