Toshiba Satellite C850D Wifi
Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is what OS you are running on your laptop. Most new Wifi 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. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter to send and receive signals to and from your router. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new wireless USB adapter and just plug it in, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have.

- The wireless adapter on your laptop cannot see the SSID coming from your router
- The laptop wireless driver cannot be installed
- The wireless signal drops multiple times during the day
