Sony PCG-FX170K Wifi
A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to connect to your router and modem. You are better off buying a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because the only thing you have to know is the current operating system on your laptop.
