Sony VGN-FW170J Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses an adapter in order to connect to your wireless router or modem. Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the OS will handle everything from there. You are better off buying a common WiFi USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is the operating system that is installed on your Sony VGN-FW170J.
Some clues your wireless internet adapter is going to die
