Lenovo ThinkCentre 3269 Wifi
The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to connect to your home router. 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 install the drivers on its own. It will be easier to buy a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your desktop.
What are some indications that my wireless internet adapter is in need of a replacement?
- The WiFi adapter on your desktop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- The WiFi adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The wireless signal goes in and out over and over again
