Dell :: N5110 Wireless Is Extremely Slow / Can't Connect Using Ethernet Port

May 23, 2013

I bought my laptop over a year ago. The wireless is really slow. I read other posts about this issue and found out that the network adapter(n1030) on this laptop is faulty or something. So I tried connecting to the internet using the Ethernet port.

The port shows up on my device manager.Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller.I know there is nothing wrong with the modem or the Ethernet cable because internet on the other computers in my house work fine.

I would also like to add that when I bought the computer, it came with windows 7 but had the ubuntu sticker on it. People in Fiji only mostly use windows so I guess the shop I bought this from did the change to windows themselves.

Dell :: Extremely Slow Ethernet Connection - XPS 8500

Apr 14, 2013

I have recently purchased a new Dell XPS 8500 desktop computer (running Windows 7) to replace my old Dell XPS 420 that died.

I have set up the internet connection on the new computer, however the Ethernet connection is painfully slow. Most webpages take forever to load, that is if they load at all. However, when I use my laptop on wireless, the speed is fine so there is no problem with the network - it must be an issue with the computer.

The laptop also works fine when connected via Ethernet.

Is there something hidden away in Internet settings that could be the cause of the slow speed, or could I just have a dodgy network card? I could easily buy a network card as there are empty slots to install. The computer will be under warranty, but would probably be easier to buy a network card for a few dollars and install myself rather than have someone come out.

I ran the Bigpond ADSL installation disk to install the relevant drivers and configure the settings automatically. I use a T-Gateway TG797n v3.

Dell :: Studio 1737 Wireless Moving Extremely Slow

Feb 13, 2012

I purchased a Dell Studio 1737 about 2 years ago, and have not had any problems with my wireless service until about a week ago.  Now my wireless connects, but is extremely slow.  I am using a Dell wireless 1397 WLAN mini-card.   I ran a hardware diagnostic and nothing is wrong with the hardware.  I also ran a connection diagnostic, and it continually fails when it gets to either Gateway IP, or Internet IP.  The driver is fully upgraded, and I have ran Malwarebytes and have not found any malware problems. how to get my wireless working properly again.

Dell :: Ridiculously Slow Wireless Speed On Inspiron 15r N5110

Jul 9, 2012

Bought a brand new Dell Inspiron 15r N5110 a week ago. I've looked through all the posts. I tried 3 different browsers, I updated drivers, firmware, BIOS, re-seated the wireless antennas under the memory module, even got a new router and modem changed settings on the router, yet still! Every solution I could find, I've executed but still have a wireless speed test yielding less than 1.0 mbps. My 4 year old laptop runs smooth, my iPad runs smooth, all other devices run smooth.

Netgear Wall - Plugged Ethernet Adapter Is Extremely Slow

May 11, 2011

I have a problem concerning my Netgear XET1001 85 MBit/s Wall-Plugged Ethernet Adapter. My personal computer in my room is connected directly to our router and I'm getting arround 14-15Mbps download speeds. My parents computer is located in a different room and I bought them the Netgear Adapter thinking this was the most effective and simplest solution. Better than a Wifi-Adapter. I cost me quite a lot too to be honest. The problem is my parents are getting speeds of 0.05Mbps and the browser often doesn't even load the pages completely. To me it seems like the data can only travel through the thing very hardly if at all.

We thought this might have to do with the age and RAM of our computer. (512MB of RAM) So we bought a new one a couple of days ago. Turns out: nothing has changed.

The Wall-Pluggs are connected directly to the outlet by the way. I'm trying to give you the most amount of information I can think of so one more thing might be important. Yesterday I brought my parent's PC into my room, connected it to the Wall-Plugg and got speeds of 5Mbps. Although this is better, it's not what I bought this thing for. Even a WIFI connection would be faster would'nt it?

Dell :: Internet Extremely Slow On Studio 1558

Apr 16, 2013

A while ago I had to take my laptop in to have it formatted and reinstalled after I had picked up a virus. I use the internal modem behind the battery where you insert the card, if I insert an external dongle using the same sim card it seems to work just fine. Before the reinstall it was just fine, connection speed was great 3g etc, now it is slower than an old 56k dial up (no kidding) I have asked the company where I bought it, but they cant find the problem. Is there a setting or update etc that I need?

Dell :: Wi-Fi Is Very Slow And Can Be Term As Unusable N5110

Feb 7, 2012

I have just bought Inspiron 15R n5110 which has intel 1030 wifi. At first thought i can troubleshoot the problem with google and some driver update. but couldn't fix at all after hours of knocking doors in internet forums and users shared experience.though i bought outlet unit, i was expecting cosmetic wear and tear, never thought i might have unit unusable. i am completely depended of wifi for my daily activities and cannot go to room mates place for wire connection. is this problem only solved by changing hardware coz i have tried all the possible tips and tricks found in internet forums.

i read somewhere that the hardware will be swapped if contacted dell CS with different model. if this was only option why did dell managed to sell a piece of unit not functional. isn't this a bad practice.

Dell :: E1505 Laptop Extremely Slow When Not Connected To Network

May 23, 2009

I use my personal laptop at work (an Inspiron E1505). To do so, I had to put it on the network at work. However, when I am home, my laptop runs extremely slow, sometimes taking several minutes just to open a simple program like the calculator. Web surfing is useless even with Road Runner. Any way to make this faster?

I go about removing the computer from the network and would that fix the issue or would I need to wipe the whole thing and start over?

Dell :: Inspiron N5110 - Ethernet Adapter Cannot Be Found In Device Manager

Aug 15, 2012

I use a hardwired Ethernet adapter to connect to the internet from home. I cannot connect to the internet on the N5110 but can connect on my desktop PC. I look at the hardware device manager and cannot find an Ethernet adapter. This leads me to believe something happened to the card. It should show up in the hardware profile. I don't want to use a wireless connection. I want to use my hardwired Ethernet adapter.

How can get the system to recognize the device? I don't need to send it in for repair. There is some work I do that can only be done on this computer.

Dell :: Inspiron N5110 Wireless Cannot Connect

Oct 24, 2012

I had to reinstall Windows but upon reinstallation, I noticed that wireless does not connect. I tried pressing Fn +F2. Nothing. No LED light for wireless.

First I started the WLAN AutoConfig service under services.msc. After starting/enabling this service - nothing.

I searched the forum and found a post for Quickset. I followed the instructions given and restarted. When I press Fn+F2 the screen flashes the wifi symbol and my wifi LED comes on. However, when I go to connect to a wireless network - none can be found (I have connected to this network before and know that it works). I searched support and navigated to Manage Wireless Networks. I click on the Add button and get the following message:Windows cannot detect any wireless network interfaces.

Dell Laptop Latitude 610 Unable To Connect To Internet Via Ethernet Cable Port

Dec 9, 2012

I have a Dell Laptop Latitude 610 and I have not been able to connect to the Internet via the ethernet cable port for some four months now. I've tried downloading software from Dell's web site, I bought (and returned) and USB to Ethernet cable, only to find out that it was a model ahead of what this machine needs.I've asked local repair place (Microcenter) what it might be, but they'll only tell me after I pay $70 just to open it up.Another repair guy said that it is probably the motherboard and it wasn't worth fixing. (Yet if it was, wouldn't the entire computer decide not to work at all?) [code]

Dell :: Can't Connect N5110 Inspiron To Wi-Fi

Nov 11, 2011

I am having difficulty connecting my Inspiron N5110 to WiFi (I managed to when I first bought it last week through a different network but when I bought it home it didn't work).

When I try and connect, it asks for the key, which I enter. It then searches and says it can't connect to the Network. The WiFi Network then becomes unavailable and loses signal with all Internet connected devices then taken offline. The network then reconnects but the laptop still doesn't connect to the WiFi. Is there a setting I need to change in the laptop to get it to connect?

Dell :: Inspiron 15R N5110 / Unable To Connect To The Internet

Jul 12, 2012

I have a Dell Inspiron 15R N5110, using a TrendNet Wireless Adapter, and using SkyWeb Internet Service. My laptop is a little over a year old.On April 30, 2012, I had to have my hard drive and motherboard replaced by Dell due to some issues. It was replaced, but directly afterwards, I couldn't connect to my wireless internet when I was more than five feet away. I have contacted Dell several times about this and each time they give me the same answer:

Reset/Uninstall the current connection, reconnect to the connection, and allow it to connect.

Each time, it wouldn't work. Finally, after calling for the seventh or eighth time, I was told that perhaps my wireless card was bad (which I had suggested before, but the Dell employees told me that wasn't possible). So a Dell Dispatcher was sent to my house, my dispatch number being <Admin Note:dispatch number removed per privacy policy~RK> and my technician was Will. He replaced my WiFi card, ran an EPSA diagnostics test, to which all tests passed, and still couldn't get my Internet to connect. We were less than twenty feet away. He tried to suggest that perhaps it was because the wall was decreasing the signal, but that is not possible since my sister (who owns a Dell laptop herself) can connect just fine from anywhere in our home. He called Dell himself, who was told that I (the customer) should contact tech support.

I contacted Dell support and was told to contact the wireless division, who has told me to the same thing as stated above (reset, re-install, connect). I was  told to turn off the power saving feature under my wireless networks in device manager. That seemed to do the trick for a few hours. Then, it went back to cutting in and out. I can't go more than five feet from my wifi adapter anymore when I used to be able to go outside with it. My sister (as mentioned before) tested this a few days ago. I have installed numerous drivers, and I'm not even sure whether I need them or if they're even working.

Dell :: Inspiron 6400 - Very Slow Internet Via Ethernet - Fine When Using Wireless

Jul 9, 2012

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista with a Broadcom 440x10/100 Integrated Controller.  I've had the computer for 5 years, and have always connected to the  internet using wireless with no problem.  Just moved to a new place, don't have a router yet, and now when I try to connect via the ethernet cable my internet is sooo slow, taking about a minute to load a page.  My roommate's computer runs great using the ethernet.

Extremely Slow Wireless Connection?

May 5, 2011

I just had comcast internet installed, and am using a linksys wireless router (WRT160N). When I connect my netbook to the network it gets 0.7mbps on speedtest.net, when I use my girlfriends laptop it gets 16+mbps. I have tried everything, I am at my whits end. I have updated my firmware, updated windows to the the limit and reset the settings on my router. If I connect my netbook directly to the router I get 20+ but wireless is 0.7 and upload speed stays the same. I am using an HP Mini 210-2000 with windows 7 starter, I have updated it to service pack 1 and have all the windows based drivers installed. I have not tested it on another wireless network to see if it gets the same terrible connection. I don't know if its something with my computer, windows 7 starter, or the way my computer talks to the router

Dell :: Inspiron N5110 Takes Ages To Connect To Network

Oct 25, 2012

I have a Dell Inspiron N5110, service tag

<ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed as per privacy policy>

This never used to happen but has been occurring for about 5-6 months without an end in sight. The problem is that it takes ages to connect to a network and that networks are not joined automatically. Basically, whenever I open my laptop from sleep, I will see the little blue rotating symbol in the bottom right hand of the screen and it stays there for 2-3 minutes (usually) before it connects. Windows usually pops up an icon which says 'it is taking longer than usual to connect to the network' and it seems to often successfully connect when the connection attempt times out.

Steps I have taken to fix the issue:

- Update the network driver (it is up to date).- Never allow the system to turn off the wireless network adapter (via  device manager).- Check that the network has 'join automatically' ticked in the settings.

Wireless Extremely Slow After Setting Static IP?

Jan 3, 2012

So recently my wireless speed on my desktop had dropped considerably. I have a 3Mb/s connection, but I am getting speeds ranging from 0.2-0.5Mb/s in speed tests(Actual Mega bits, not Bytes). Last week I set a static IP so that I could do some port forwarding. I don't exactly remember what day I did the static IP, and what day it started going slow, but this is my prime suspect. All of the other computers on the network are running at full steam. I even changed the settings on my wireless adapter back to obtain IP/DNS automatically, but the problem still persists.

I am using a TP-Link wireless USB adapter with up-to-date drivers. [URL]. I already had the ports forwarded in my router. I reformatted my PC a few weeks back and finally got around to setting the static IP again. The forwards were saved already in the router, I just set the IP to the one I had used before.

Asus RT-N12 Running Extremely Slow When Connected To Wireless?

Oct 28, 2012

I have an Asus RT_N12 that works great(12-20mbps) hardwired. It also has a "excellent" connection when connected wirelessly but slows down to 50Kbps.I have restarted/started, reset(all multiple times). I contacted ASUS customer support they told me bad router or firmware update. I updated firmware same thing took the router back and exchanged router. Same problem. I then went into router settings and changed from "Auto" to channel,1,2,3,4,etc. No luck. My buddy that is a "Tech expert" says that since I live in high density(12 unit) apt building someone has something interfering.My only problem with that is I used to live in a 48 unit building with wi fi supplied by the building and never had this problem.

Cisco Wireless :: RV120W Downloading On PS3 Is Extremely Slow

Dec 29, 2012

I've some troubles connecting my PS3 to my RV120W.Both router and PS3 have latest firmwares. They are connected wireless (distance is about 10 mt, signal is good).PS3 ip is in DMZ (connection doesn't work with only Upnp), and ip fragmentation is enabled.Everything  seems to work (NAT type 2), but downloading on PS3 is extremely slow. My  ADSL is a 6Mb, download speed on PS3 seems like more than ten times  lower (I don't know how to test it..). Plus, downloading a 100 MB patch is almost impossile, cause sooner or later I get an error and i have to restart.Two of my PCs are connected wireless, so I guess wi-fi is not the problem.

Toshiba Satellite L500-2H / Extremely Slow Wireless Speed

Having a bit of a quandry. I have one laptop, a Toshiba Satellite L500-2H, that seems to get ridiculously slow wireless speeds sometimes. Like, slow to the point of not even being able to load webpages. Or taking way too long to do so. Either it cripples along or can't load outright.sometimes the Toshiba will do exactly what it's supposed to and pull 20 megabits/s on speedtest.net, which is what the others do.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Speeds Extremely Slow

Jan 24, 2013

i just replaced my malfunctioning E4200 with the new EA6500 and the speeds are almost like dail-up. I haven't changed ANYTHING in regards to the setup, so I don't see what I could possibly be doing wrong. I even went as far as hooking up the old E4200 to my laptop while having the EA6500 hooked up to my desktop so that I could cross-reference the router settings. They were exactly the same.

TP-Link 300Mbps Wireless :: TL-WR841ND - Extremely Slow Speed With Wds

Apr 24, 2013

Region : Others
Model : TL-WR841ND
Hardware Version : V8
Firmware Version : wr841nv8_en_3_13_27_up_boot(121101)
ISP :

I followed TP-Link's guide to set up a WDS connection between my two brand new WR841ND router. It theoreticaly "works", but the network is extremly slow. Copying a ~100 Mb sized file to another computer on the other side takes more than 10 minutes or more, I don't know exactly, because I shut down the process after 10 min. I pinged the "slave" router with 200 packets, and I realized that every third, fourth and fifth packet has more than 500 ms time. The minimum is 4 ms, the longest was 566 ms.

Router A (Master)
Connects to the internet/ADSL
DHCP enabled

[Code].....

I bought the two router from the same dealer, at the same time. Both have the same firmware. I checked all the chanels, and 5 is the only free one, but the situation is the same on every chanel.

What can couse this very slow transfer speed?

Extremely Slow Wireless Connection On New ASUS G Series G53SW-XN1 Laptop

Sep 25, 2011

Recently I bought a ASUS G Series G53SW-XN1 to replace my old laptop and it uses a Atheros AR9002WB-1NG wireless network adapter to connect to my network. On my older laptop I can get the full download speeds on my network of 500-600 kbs, but on my asus I can only acheive between 70-120 kbs. There should be little to no interference between me and my router and it sits only about 15 ft behind me.

My router is an old linksys wireless router which only transmits a B signal. I know wireless B is considered slow but it works perfectly fine for what I use it for and it works on my other laptop.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E3000 Extremely Slow Menu Access?

Feb 29, 2012

I just purchased an E-3000 and when I log into the user interface it seems changing pages and saving settings takes forever. I click on a section in the router menu and it takes what seems like 30 seconds for the page to change or accept the new settings. It's not my browser it's definitely a Linksys Router issue. I updated to the latest firmware and latest Cisco Connect software as well. Is this slow user interface a normal thing with these routers?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 - Extremely Slow Download Speeds

Jun 5, 2011

All I want is functional Wi-Fi in my house like the rest of the world. Unfortunately, I cannot have that for whatever reason.

Now that I said that, Let's me get down to explaining my issue. I orginally owned a Linksys WRT350n. This router worked fine for years, untill one day I decided to do a speed test on my new Motrola Atrix. My Wired computer gets ~22000kbps down and 4000kbps up... My wireless speedtest on my Atrix yielded 2000kbps down and 4000kbps up. I assumed it was the phone, so i went and tried every other wireless device in my house. Everyone of them got the same result.. 2000kbps down.. 4000kbps up.

At this point I went into my router settings and tried every available channel, all of them yielded the same result of 2000kbps down and 4000kbps up.. At this point, I assumed it was the router. Ive had it for a few years and figured it was just reaching EOL. I rushed to my nearest bestbuy to pick up a brand new Linksys E4200. I brought it home, hooked it up and was eager to test my new wireless speeds. Unfortunately the same results of 2000kbps down and 4000kbps up was the yield. Once again, I've tried every possible channel with no change to my speeds. At this point I called up Linksys/Cisco support.. They were POSITIVE it was a hardware issue and had me exchange the router, even though I informed them i had the same issue with my older router of a different model. I went along with it anyway, and exchanged my router. Same issue. I called Cisco/Linksys back up and informed them, and basically they told me "they'd make a note of the issue and call me back at a later date."

I downloaded a WiFi Analyzer on my cell phone. Theres only two other dectable networks in my area, and they are low low low signal. So, I don't believe it's heavy saturation. The router is in the same room as 3 of the wireless devices that get 2000kbps down/4000kbps up. So it's not range either.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Vigor 120 Bridged With EA4500 Extremely Slow Connection

Feb 1, 2013

I've set up PPPoE on my EA4500 router with a Vigor 120 modem in bridged mode and it says an internet connection is established, but the connection is extremely slow on all my devices. When I run the speed test within the EA4500 firmware it appears fine, but I cannot load any web pages on my laptop or other decives because the connection is so slow. The connection is slow with both wired and wireless connections. I've tried changing the MTU settings with no success. I've also tried using a different router and connecting the modem directly to my laptop and using PPPoE within the laptop and these both work fine, so I think it's clear there is a problem with the EA4500 router itself.
 
I'm just using the Vigor 120 to authenticate and connect to the internet itself, with the router in DHCP automatic configuration mode. I think this is causing a double NAT.
