Sony VGN-CS290J Wifi

Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter to communicate with your wireless router or modem. It is much simpler to buy a new USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because the only thing you have to know is the current operating system on your Sony VGN-CS290J.
