Acer Aspire 5517 Wifi
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 system will install the drivers automatically. WiFi, or wireless internet, makes use of a wireless adapter in order to talk to your home router. It is much simpler to buy a new wireless USB adapter and install it, than to replace any built-in adapter your laptop may have. Buying a USB wireless adapter is quick and painless because all you need to know is the operating system that is installed on your Acer Aspire 5517.
