Sony VGN-FW486J Wifi
Most USB wireless adapters are plug-n-play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new USB adapter and just plug it in, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Finding a WiFi adapter is easy due to the fact that all you need to know beforehand is the operating system that is installed on your laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter to send and receive signals to and from your home network.
How do you know if your WiFi adapter is almost going bad?
- Your WiFi in your Sony laptop is unable to connect to the internet
- Your wireless internet connection goes out randomly all the time
- The wireless adapter driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
