Toshiba Tecra M7 Wifi
Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is the current operating system on your laptop. The WiFi in your laptop, if so equipped, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your router. It is cheaper and easier to purchase a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than it is to replace any type of OEM adapter you might have. Most new Wifi adapters are simply plug and play, which just means that you only need to put the adapter into an available USB port and the OS will handle everything from there.
Red flags to watch for in a bad WiFi adapter
- The WiFi adapter on your laptop will not connect to your router anymore
- The laptop wireless driver suddenly shows as uninstalled
- The wireless signal drops multiple times throughout the day
