Lenovo ThinkCentre 8160 Wifi
Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. You are better off buying a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to connect to your router and modem. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the operating system that is installed on your Lenovo desktop.
