Replacing a Laptop's Built-in WiFi Adapter

$

My Windows 8 laptop shipped with a built-in WiFi adapter. I prefer to use my own WiFi adapter.

I disabled the built-in WiFi adapter from the Windows 8 Network and Sharing control panel and then connected my own WiFi adapter (to a USB port) and installed its driver. So far, everything seems to be working okay.

Are there any other configuration changes I should have made? For example, should I disable the built-in WiFi adapter in Windows 8 Device Manager?
