What type of network adapter should I purchase?

A USB WiFi adapter is an easy way to enhance your device to get the fastest speeds available. UIT recommends the NetGear A6210 . Network Adapters  can be purchased at the CougarByte, online stores or electronics retailers near you.

Test a USB adapter before you purchase! Go to the Information Technology Support Center to try a WiFi adapter and see how much of an improvement it is over your current WiFi connection.
