Lenovo NetVista 2289 Wifi
Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter to send and receive signals to and from your router and modem. It is much simpler to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because the only thing you have to know is the current operating system on your desktop.
Some warnings the wireless card will need replacing
- The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The wireless signal disconnects and reconnects during the day
- Your WiFi on your desktop does not connect at all
