Lenovo ThinkCentre 3429 Wifi
The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to connect to your router and modem. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is the current operating system on your Lenovo desktop. Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and 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. You are better off buying a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have.
What are the clues to watch out for to know my onboard WiFi needs to be replaced?
- The desktop wireless driver cannot be installed
- Your WiFi on your desktop will not connect to your router anymore
- The WiFi disconnects and reconnects during the day
