Lenovo ThinkCentre 8187 Wifi
Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically. Searching for a new adapter is simple because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Lenovo ThinkCentre 8187. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your desktop may have. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to connect to your home router.
