Lenovo ThinkPad Z61M Wifi
Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter to communicate with your home router. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is what OS you are running on your Lenovo laptop.
Red flags the WiFi adapter will need replacing
- The wireless adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- Your wireless internet connection drops for no reason all the time
- The wireless adapter on your laptop does not connect at all
