You are better off buying a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Searching for a new adapter is simple because all you need to know is the current operating system on your Sony laptop. WiFi, or wireless internet, uses an adapter in order to connect to your home router. A lot of newer wireless adapters are simply plug and play, in that you just plug it in the USB port and the system will install the drivers automatically.
Indications to watch for in a failing wireless internet adapter
- The WiFi adapter driver shows it as not installed
- Your WiFi on your laptop does not connect at all
- The WiFi drops for no reason every day
