Over the course of the last year, we have received dozens of questions similar to the one we’re featuring from Jean today. If you’re having problems with your Wi-Fi, perhaps our answer to Jean will help.<\/p>\n
I am still struggling with this computer. I can now connect with Wi-Fi after a jillion futile attempts, but it connects when it wants, and some things still don’t work right. So yes, I am ready to try what you said!<\/p>\n
Hi Jean. It sounds like your computer’s wireless adapter is going bad. But there’s an easy way to workaround that; it’s easy to do and inexpensive too! \u00a0Get yourself a Wi-Fi USB adapter. All you have to do is plug it into any available USB port, install the software that comes with it (if any) and connect to your Wi-Fi network. It’s the easiest way to work around a wireless network adapter that is going bad. It takes less than 5 minutes to get a USB Wireless Adapter up and running. You don’t even have to open your computer’s case… and you can do it for less than $30. TC recently bought a Wi-Fi USB adapter for his laptop and paid less than $20.<\/p>\n
Here’s a Wi-Fi USB adapter we found on Amazon<\/u> <\/a>that says it’s for Windows 10 too.<\/p>\n You can find Wi-Fi USB adapters anywhere they sell computers, routers, printers, etc. For example, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Staples, Amazon and more. They range in price from \u00a0little as $10 up to $80… you should be able to find a really good one for between $20 to $30 USD.<\/p>\n [Jean wrote back:<\/strong> “Hi Darcy.
