Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your Lenovo ThinkPad W500. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your home router. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
