Maybe they have gone down in price. The last two I bought were around $50 but that was a few years ago now

I just searched Amazon for usb network adapter and there were many prices from less than $10 to the $20 range, depending on specs. For an older laptop I would try the lower end and Amazon will refund or exchange if it does not work.

But I agree with Warren. Just buy a USB Wifi adapter. Closer to $50 than $10 in my experience but still much easier and safer than screwing around inside your laptop

Buy a usb wifi adapter on Amazon and disable the current one in Device Manager to fix the problem for around $10.

I would just take it into a service center and let them do it so it will have a warranty

Should be easyto do. Usually there is an access panel on the bottom of the laptop. Search YouTube for an instructional video.
