Dell :: Internet Connectivity With Inspiron 7520

Aug 11, 2012

I have acquired a Dell Inspiron 7520 for a week now, and I've been having a strange issue with internet connectivity since then. Firstly, the wifi takes a lot of time to connect. Following, every 10 minutes I'm online, my network access stops working completely. But if I just CLICK on the network icon in the tool bar, it starts working again, but it stops in the next 10 minutes again, and so on. If I try to repair connectivity problems, it always find and fix some problem in the network adapter or wireless point, but then again, after 10 minutes or so, it happens again.My network adapter is a Dell Wireless 1703 802.11b/g/n 2.4ghz and I have tried to update it and to re-download the firmware, but nothing seems to fix it.

Dell :: Network Controller Driver On Inspiron 7520 SE

Feb 13, 2013

I just bought a brand new Inspiron 15R SE 7520. After a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate (service pack 1) I've visited the Dell Product Support section, entered in my service tag and downloaded all the recommended drivers & applications. Everything works fine on the laptop right now except for one major issue: I can't connect to the internet.The wireless switch is ON, but there's no sign of any wireless networks in the Network and Sharing center or in the system tray icon next to the clock.This is what I see in the device manager:When I double click the Network controller the device status reads:The drivers for this device are not installed. (code 28),I checked this thread which seemed to have a very similar problem to mine, and I updated the bios to Inspiron_7520_A07_BIOS.Next I installed this driver [URL]. After unpacking the latter file (WiFi_Intel_W74_A01_Setup-G6Y8G_ZPE.exe) and running setup.exe I got his error message.

Dell Inspiron Has Limited Connectivity / No Internet Access

Oct 14, 2012

I am currently in Thailand and I have been using dozens of different wifi connections around Australia and South-east Asia without a problem for the last year. I moved into a new place yesterday and when I tried to connect, it has the little yellow triangle with an exclamation mark, over the wireless symbol on the taskbar. I tried the troubleshooter but it says turn the modem off an on, I don't think I can do this, I'll try and ask reception but I doubt they will let me.

No-one else at this place I am staying has had the same problem as me. The signal strength is "excellent", the wifi password is correct. I have windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron.

I am at my old place now, where the internet works. I downloaded the internet test thing from one of the stickies, I'll go and do that at my new place and post the results soon.

Dell :: Inspiron 5010 - Can't Get Wireless Internet Connectivity Reestablished

Dec 16, 2011

We've had a home wireless router for several years.  My wife's one-year old laptop computer (Dell Inspiron 5010) worked fine until this week when it suddenly lost connectivity and I can't get it back on-line.  My laptop still works fine.  I first ensured that the wireless function is on.  I then clicked on the connectivity icon which shows "No connections available".  It also won't show me any available wireless conection options.  Under the "Open Network and Sharing Center" link, I've tried the "Set up a new connection of network" and "Connect to the internet".  Under "How do you want to connect?" it only gives me "Dial-Up" as an option initially and adds "Broadband" when I choose "Show options the computer is not set up to use".  When I choose broadband, and enter my user name and password, I get a message that "The wizard cannot create the connection".  I also went to Control Panel, Internet Properties, Connections, Set-Up, and it takes me back to the same "Connect to the Internet window mentioned above with the same issues.  I also plugged my wife's computer dirrectly into the router and still got no connectivity.  How do I get my wife's computer back on-line?

Dell :: Inspiron 17R SE Wireless Connectivity

Mar 23, 2013

I have been experiencing quite a bit of wireless problems with my Inspiron 17R SE. Only about half the time can I connect to my router and even then it only stays connected for a couple hours. It seems intermittent and the problem will go away for a week or so, but right now it is back in full force. Typically it will either connect and say that there is limited connectivity or it won't connect at all. Resetting the adapter via the Windows 7 troubleshooter only fixes it about half the time.

The thing is that the wireless and everything else works just fine on my Ubuntu partition, which makes me think that my driver is a bit wonky. I have tried downloading the one directly from Dell, and that has come to no avail. I have even tried using the Dell software support suite, and that hasn't found anything wrong either.

Dell :: Inspiron N5040 Spotty Wi-Fi Connectivity

Jul 22, 2012

I purchased a Dell Inspiron N5040 several months ago, and since I first got it, my connectivity to my in-home wi-fi upon start-up fickle.  I still have my old laptop, and on that one I simply open the laptop and it's connected.  This new one, I have found that I MUST put it to sleep before closing, and upon "waking" it back up, I may or may not be connected to the wi-fi upon restart.  A little "caution" symbol will appear over the wi-fi indicator, and it say that I am connected to my network, but no internet connection.  Sometimes I can disconnect and reconnect, but sometimes I have to put my computer to sleep and start over again.what I need to do to have consistent connectivity?

Dell :: Inspiron E1405 Wireless Connectivity

Mar 9, 2007

I've been doing research on the Dell site for hours via a landline and still cannot find a solution to my problem. Recently, my wireless internet function has not been working on my Inspiron E1405 computer that I purchased in June 2006.  The Intel Proset/Wireless shows the networks in range, and then is unable to connect.  I don't think it is a security issue because I have been able to access those networks in the past, as recently as last week.  I think maybe one of my drives or programs got uninstalled, but I'm clueless how to fix it.

Dell :: Unusual Connectivity With Inspiron 660s

Sep 6, 2012

I just got a new Inspiron 660s last week and have been having some unusual connectivity issues with it. After suffering for a day or so with a painfully slow wireless connection (the status showed the signal was "excellent" but the speed of downloads or loading web pages was dreadful; meanwhile my older Inspiron Mini in roughly the same location blazes along and has for years with no problems), I decided to try just going with a wired connection. This fixed the speed issue to say the least, but now the connection drops for a few seconds every five minutes or so, then immediately reconnects. If I were just web-surfing, it wouldn't impact me all that much, but the activities I enjoy, like playing games online and streaming music, require a signal that doesn't keep cutting out. I've tried updating the drivers, but I'm told I have the most up-to-date drivers. I've tried unchecking the power-saving options and I've tried unchecking IPv6 and just about every other solution I've come across in my web searches, but nothing works. When I get home from work this evening I may try uninstalling and reinstalling the device drivers. Barring that, I may just go pick up a USB wireless adapter-- I used a cheap Belkin one in the same location on an old Dimension desktop years ago and it worked great-- and see if that works.

Dell :: Inspiron N5050 Laptop Wireless Connectivity

Jan 28, 2013

Unfortunately, I'd been blaming the broadband at home and didn't realise this before my warranty ran out - on 30/12/12 

McAffee has been uninstalled and Avast put on instead, but still it is the same - it works fine when the lead is plugged in from the router - on Speedtest it shows download speed 3.13.  On wireless at home it works, just, but speed is reduced to 0.49 even though I'm sitting right next to the router.  Bring it to work and it can't see the internet to connect to it

Dell :: Inspiron 15R Wi-Fi Limited Connectivity / Connection Drops / Can't Reconnect

Dec 2, 2012

This computer is brand new Dell Inspiron 15R. The WIFI is dropping out repeatedly. I connect for ~10 minutes, but then the connection gets a yellow exclamation point for limited connectivity, and I can't reconnect until rebooting the router. I read the sticky but there wasn't a post for the 2230 network card.

The problem happened on windows 7 and now on windows 8. Rebooting the computer doesn't work. I tried the POWER SAVE trick and it didn't work. I tried the maximum roaming trick, and that didn't work either. The network card is the Centrino Wireless-N 2230 with the 15.5.6.48 drivers. 

I can connect to the Verizon Wireless router or tether off my DROID X2 for about ten minutes, sometimes for longer, but either way, the connection is dropped, and I can't reconnect until rebooting the router.

Dell :: Inspiron 15r Special Edition Wireless Connectivity Drops When Lid Closed?

Nov 5, 2012

Quick Specs:- Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium

- Wireless Card: Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230

Issue: Whenever I close my lid, my wireless connectivity drops by around 80+%. When using speedtest.net, I normarlly download at 5 megabits/s and upload at 1, but with my lid closed, I download at less then 0.4 and upload surprisingly at 0.8. My downloads and torrents basically grind to a halt, multiplayer gaming becomes difficult and websites/youtube/videos take much longer to load. I can check all these figures as I'm using an external monitor.I have tried a lot of things to improve connectivity including setting everything to high performance, disabling power saving modes, setting roaming to aggressive/high and updating drivers.

Dell :: Inspiron M5110 - No Connectivity After Installing 1702 Driver For Wireless Adapter?

Jul 4, 2013

I have a Inspiron M5110 Laptop and was having some trouble staying connected to my internet so this morning I decided I would try and update the drivers. I have uninstalled the Wireless and Blue Tooth drivers and reinstalled them, but now, it won't even TRY to connect at all. In the bottom right corner, there's a red x over the wireless bars, and says No Connections are available. Before , it would have a spinning circle while trying to connect, but it doesnt have that at all anymore. My Ethernet connection is working fine, I even uninstalled and reinstalled that driver (REALTEK) and its working with no problems.

If I run IPCONFIG, the wireless adapter doesn't even show up anymore. I've tried resetting, disabling, anything I could think of. I tried several versions too of the drivers, but nothing is working. Right now, I removed it, so I have a yellow exclamation mark next to Network Controller in my Device Settings. My hardware ID for the adapter is PCIVEN_168C&DEV_002B&SUBSYS_02051028

I think from the above info, I believe the wireless adapter belongs to Atheros.how I can get this thing to even attempt to connect to a network? I'm dead in the water...

Dell :: XPS L501X No Internet Connectivity

Apr 21, 2013

I can not connect to the internet either by WiFi or ethernet connection on my XPS L501X 64bit running Windows 7. This problem suddenly occurred after a failed microsoft update. The Action Centre lists a number of problems including;

Host Process for Windows Services........................................Windows Update installation problem

Microsoft Malware Protection Command Line Utility (3).......Mp Telemetry

Microsoft Management Console...............................................Stopped working

Network Diagnostics Framework (4).......................................Unable to diagnose/repair problems

Windows Wireless Lan 802.11 Extensibility Framework....Stopped working

I can copy the technical details to Notepad and send them if this would be useful in determining the problem and finding a solution.

Of course, with no internet connection, I have been unable to report the problems, check for solutions or run any online diagnostics and am using another laptop to communicate.

I have downloaded and installed the latest WiFi adaptor (Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000) and driver to no avail. I used the Intel updater wizard thingy which uninstalled the old adaptor and installed the new one. I have not updated the Realtec PCIe GBE Family Controller driver, but when I click on update driver, it indicates the the latest driver is installed. All devices are listed as working properly.

Dell :: Studio 17 Model PP33L - Lost All Internet Connectivity

Jan 3, 2012

My daughters Studio 17 laptop lost all internet connectivity. Wired and Wireless. I have been searching all kinds of threads but don't seem to find a solution to this issue. I have done two systems recoveries to earlier dates when we know it was working to no avail. I have 3 other computers on this network and none are experiencing any issues. I did just change from DSL to cable broadband, but the computer was fine until Monday night. Not sure what is going on. Does a system recovery will undo Windows updates? The most recent updates took place on 1/4/2012, which is about the time the problem showed up. I am going to uninstall those updates, 2 Security Update for Windows, and see what happens. Stand by. No good. It didn't work. I see a lot of people who are having the same problem here recently so something must have changed.

Dell :: No Internet On 1546 Inspiron?

Dec 28, 2011

I was on the internet browsing as usual, then all of a sudden when I turned my laptop back on the internet was not working. There is a red cross over a dial-up symbol where the wireless symbol used to be. And when I go on "change adapter settings" nothing is there. On device manager, network adapters is missing unless I go on "show hidden devices".

I tried to install the drivers on my Dell 1546 Inspiron (Windows 7 64-bit). [URL] I am stuck on step 4 (see link) as I'm unsure which one to download under networks. I think its the Realtek Driver (RTL8103EL-GR) and when I install it a message pops up "The Realtek Network Controller was not found. If Deep Sleep Mode is enabled Please Plug the Cable."

I have spent countless hours searching online attempting to fix this problem. I read in numerous posts if I remove the RAM and place it back in after 10 minutes it should solve the issue, but others have said it did not work for them. I am inexperience and rather not open-up and remove anything in-case of further problems.
