Lenovo ThinkPad R51E Wifi
Most new Wifi adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Lenovo ThinkPad R51E. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to send and receive signals to and from your home router. It will be easier to buy a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.
Clues the wireless card needs replacing ASAP
- The wireless adapter in your Lenovo laptop does not connect at all
- The wireless signal disconnects itself all the time
- The WiFi adapter driver shows it as not installed
