Wifi connections not found for some old laptops
Issue:
On some of the aged machines, sometimes there is the issue “No Wi-fi Adapter Found”

Root cause:
MetaDefender Drive operating system cannot find the proper driver to use.
Solution:
Please use Ethernet or a USB Wi-fi dongle instead
Here is a list of Wifi dongles that we have tested and confirmed work well with Drive:
- Ralink Technology MT7601U Wireless Adapter
- D-link Wireless‑N Nano USB Adapter DWA‑131
- Lb-link 150mbps Mini USB 802.11n/g/b
- TPLink TL-WN725N
