Lenovo ThinkPad 380Z Wifi
A lot of newer wireless 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. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter to communicate with your home router. It is much simpler to buy a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your laptop.
Clues to watch for to know your internal WiFi will need to be replaced
- The wireless signal drops multiple times all the time
- The wireless adapter driver gives errors when installing
- The WiFi adapter in your Lenovo laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
