Sony VGN-CS290N Wifi

Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your router and modem. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because the only thing you have to know is the operating system that is installed on your Sony laptop. It is much simpler to buy a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.
