Just plug it in, set it up, and you are ready to go wireless.

How Do You Install a USB Wireless Adapter?

A USB wireless adapter allows a device that is not Wi-Fi enabled to connect to a wireless network as long as there is an existing wireless network in range for the d

evice to connect to. A dongle, on the other hand, provides a wireless connection even when there are no available networks to be found. A dongle works in a similar fashion as cellular phone internet services by using a mobile broadband connection that you are required to pay a monthly service fee to access.

Do You Need a USB Wireless Adapter for Laptops?

At optimal performance, some internal wireless cards that lack an antenna simply don't get as strong of a connection as external options. When you are several rooms or even floors away from the wireless router, adding a USB wireless adapter to your laptop ought to give you a more reliable connection.
