Sony VGN-A170B Wifi

The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your home router. You are better off buying a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Buying a wireless adapter is quite easy because all you need to know is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own.

Important hints your wireless internet adapter is failing

The WiFi adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
The laptop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
Your WiFi signal drops multiple times every day
