Lenovo ThinkCentre 8711 Wifi
A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. The WiFi in your desktop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to connect to your router. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because all you need to know is the operating system that is installed on your desktop. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
