Sony VGN-NR480E Wifi
The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, uses a piece of hardware in order to talk to your home router. A lot of newer wireless adapters are plug-n-play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the operating system will take care of the rest. It will be easier to buy a new wireless 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 laptop.
Major indications the WiFi adapter needs replacing
- The laptop wireless driver shows it as not installed
- The wireless adapter in your Sony laptop is unable to find a signal from your router
- The wireless signal drops multiple times over and over again
