Sony PCG-F490 Wifi
Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the current operating system on your laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware to send and receive signals to and from your home network. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. A lot of newer wireless 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.
Warnings of a declining wireless card
- The laptop wireless driver gives errors when installing
