How can I test my 441090-001 Wireless Adapter? (QDS-BRCM1020)

I have a laptop Presario F730US and my OS is Vista 32 bit. It is inconvenient to use USB wireless adapter when internal laptop Presario a WiFi adapter. I bought the USB adapter TP link wireless for Internet access.

Is it possible that the mini-PCI card does not work?

You are the very welcome, John.

If she is not there, then it might actually be one of these possibilities...

1. maybe you can install the HP Wireless Assistant and see if it shows your card in the program, and he just needs to be turned on with the software button.

2. the card is completely faulty and is not seeing the same as installed.

3. your PC has the same features (nvidia graphics and chipset) as the dv6000/dv9000 notebooks.  He had problems with motherboard dv6000/dv9000 series with this material. Among several things that could go wrong has been done on the motherboard mini-PCIe slot.

You can search eBay by part number, and you should be able to pick up a replacement used but tested and functional real cheap.

You can get a map with this specific part number or it will not work.

Here is a link to several listed on eBay - as low as $4,00

If the replacement of the card works, then you have solved the problem at a great price. If it isn't then you know the motherboard is bad and not worth fixing and you either continue as you are now, with an external WLAN adapter, or spring for a different laptop.
