Sony VGN-S170 Wifi

Finding a WiFi adapter is easy because all you need to know is the operating system that is installed on your Sony laptop. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter to communicate with your wireless router or modem. Most USB wireless adapters are simply plug and play, which means you simply plug it into a USB port and the OS will install the drivers on its own. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have.

Indications the WiFi adapter is dying

Your WiFi on your laptop does not connect at all
The wireless adapter driver shows it as not installed
Your wireless internet connection has trouble connecting during the day
