Dell :: XPS 14z Knocks Whole Connection Out
Sep 15, 2012
Im using a Linksys router, when I connect my Dell XPS 14z to the router wirelessly the connection drops out, the DSL and Internet lights go off and re-connect 5 minutes later creating an endless cycle. I'm not sure if it's the laptop settings or the router settings.
Using my mobile phones/xbox360/Alienware m11x the connection is stable and it doesnt drop out, using the XPS 14z makes it go off.
I've updated my network card drivers for the XPS 14z; i've kept playing around with settings on both the laptop and the router but no success?

Shortly after creating a VPN connection on one of the computers, the network is turned off. The router remains powered on but no internet access or access between computers is possible. At first we put it to coincidence but after 3 times, we can't figure out what is happening.

I have a Gateway Laptop that knocks out my att dsl connection randomly. It happens when it is connected by wire or wireless. I have other devices that use the the internet connection without any problem including an ipad, cell phones, and wireless tv's. They all connect and the signal never gets interupted, but when I use my gateway laptop with in a few minutes the I start losing signal randomly. It does lock back on but usually continues to in and out.

I have a new HP lap top which I have connected to the net thro my edimax 7266 routerI also have another lap top and desktop connected via this router. This other lap top I can connect either wired or wireless so the router seems to be working perfectlyThe problem is when I enable the HP laptop wireless adaptor and try to connect to the net . As soon as I do this the orange light on the router goes solid from blinking and I cannot then access the net from any of the computers either wired or wireless. I have to disable the HP wireless adaptor and reboot the router to get a connection on the computers.

I have a problem when doing Apple Airplay mirroring from my iphone5. Every time it kmocks the wifi signal off so I need to reboot the router. This is only happening on the iphone 5, and not other apple devices using mirroring. Our ipad 3 mirrors perfectly without affecting the wifi. There isn't any specific settings on the iphone 5 for airplay apart from setting it on and off.

After starting WIN7 on my DELL Studio XPS8100, no connection to LAN is to be seen ( network symbol shows "!" ).The system shows this behavior in nearly 80% of starting attempts.
Click on network-symbol the network installation center shows :
computer (STUDIO ) ----------------some networks -------------X--------- internet
after "DEACTIVATION" of this public network and clicking on solving Problems / network diagnostics the result line shows : "LAN connection" is not active. After click on "Repair", the process leads to a fully functioning LAN - Process.
The Home-network is running ( not the public network, I don't need ). This is correct ! Next time , when I start the computer, the same procedure is necessary.

I have a 1 1/2 year old Dell XPS 15 L502x laptop.I have noticed that it has started having network connection issues with the wifi. It connects to all wifi properly but seems to be having issues with the home router recently. Around November 2012 it started. However I fixed the issue then by re-installing the driver.
This time reinstalling the driver did not solve the problem .. I have tried using the driver from intel's website as suggested by a previous forum post on a similar issue. I have alos tried the power settings suggestions by intel and none of these have solved the problem.

I had a 'No boot sector in internal hard drive' displayed, could not boot up, had to fresh install, lost everything. But now do not seem to have a wireless connection? I have a Broadcom 440x 10/100 integrated controller. Is this for wireless capability? My Fn/F2 key to switch on wireless does not work either.

I have an xps 1640 with Windows Vista 64bit. I cannot see or connect to my wireless network even though other devices and PC's have no issue connecting via wireless. I have tried everything i can think of including the following:
the mcafee fix
turning on and off wireless using both the bios and hotkey on the laptop
downloading the newest driver
running the repair using the latest driver
the diagnostic scan on the dell.ca/support site
turning off and on the firewall
changing the advanced settings through the device manager in the control panel
setting up the wireless connection manually using the ssid and wep key
....and probably some others i have forgotten
the wireless is turned on but the adapter just can't find any wireless networks even though the laptop is inches from the router. the adapter model is the intel 5100 (i believe)

The Intel N-1030 just refuses to connect at N protocol. Its almost as if the N protocol has been disabled waiting for a real fix from Intel.
I have updated firmware, etc., for router. I have several N devices and ALL connect easily and quickly. I gave up for now on the Intel WLAN N-1030 and bought a Netgear N mini-usb dongle device. With coupons it was about 10 bucks at Staples. Popped it in and what do you know, connected at N in a blink of an eye.
If Netgear can get a mini-usb N device to work properly Intel and Dell? I have set everything as suggested, power to max, router channel to auto, etc. Why no selection for wireless mode b/g/n in driver but only the 802.11n mode option?
Something is not right with this driver and implementation of the N-1030. At some point Dell is going to have to step up and provide us with what THEY advertised as the hardware we purchased. Selling a device with N protocol wireless when in reality the N protocol does not work is going to be on Dell, not on Intel.

I recently purchased 4 Inspiron 660 destkop with Windows 7 x64 Pro. When I plug them in to an ethernet connection, they are able to pull an IP address from DHCP but they do not connect to the internet. The network icon in the taskbar has a yellow exclamation point and has the message "No Internet Access" when I mouse-over it. I am trying to connect the computer in an office with a DHCP server. I have not joined the computer to the domain yet. I can plug any of my other computers into the same ethernet port and they will connect to the internet including other computers with the same OS and computers with XP SP3 or Vista. I have also had another tech connect the computer to other ethernet ports that we know work with other computers and the computers still cannot access the internet.
I have already tried the solution here: [URL] which advises you to uninstall the free McAfee software (which was already done or the computer didn't come with it) and uninstall a windows update which we did. The computers still do not connect to the internet. Are there any other possible solutions? These computers are straight out of the box and unaltered other than removing the software and update in the above link.
Could this have anything to do within the Atheros Smart Net software or the Intel Trusted Connect Service Client? I'm not familiar with this software or what it is supposed to do.

i have had my inspiron 17r since this christmas. however, after about a month of having my computer i noticed something that it did that was very annoying. the wifi connection is randomly lost for about 2 minutes and then re connects. during that time i cannot load any pages or anything. when it first started doing this, it would only happen about once every 2 hours, but it progressively got worse and worse to the point that i cannot even access the internet with it anymore. i boot it up and it has no connection then connects to wifi for 5 seconds and then loses it again. heres the deal though, this only happens with my computer out of all of my family's computers. i have a very good wifi connection because the connection says "good" whenever it does connect, and this problem never happened with my last computer which was a toshiba. i know for a fact it isn't a problem with my home wifi because i have brought my computer on a trip across the country before and it still happened. Dell worker before gave me a link to update some drivers of which i cant remember. this rectify the problem a little for maybe a week or two and then it started doing it again.

for no apparent reason I have lost both wi-fi and wired Internet on my Dell Inspiron 1545. I have tried to set up again etc but it states 'No connections are available'. I am connected on my iPod so my broadband is fine. I have tried with an Ethernet cable but it does nothing.

I just set up a wireless router in my home to my Dimension 510 computer. I know the wirelss is working because our Ps#, Iphones and ITouches can receive the signals.
However, our other desktop Dimension 510 does not appear to be receiving the wireless signal.
does it just not have the capability to receive a wireless signal and I have to use an ethernet cable connection?
Is there something I need to add in order for it to receive the sireless signal (some one mentioned an adapter but I thought an adapter just boosts the signal, and the desktop is the closest device to the network router so it should be receiveing the signal okay).

I just got my first wi-fi printer, a V715w. Even though the Wi-Fi light on the front of the printer is green, I very often can't print to the printer. I get a box saying the printer can't communicate with the computer. I would have thought that the green light was signifying that Wi-Fi communications existed. Wrong? Then what does the green light signify? When I check the settings on the printer front panel, it shows the all the correct info, SSID, etc.. Do I need to do something each time before I try to print in order to ensure a wireless connection exists? Shouldn't the printer stay connected to the Netgear dual band wireless N router all the time? The computer, Win XP, sp3 stays connected to the router all the time. I expected the printer to do the same.

Purchased 6 new e6510 latitudes and were running into a fluke on a few of them.
When the users travel between locations, they sometimes find when they turn the laptops back on that the ethernet connection is disabled. Its not the wi fi switched off, but the actual ethernet connection in control panel is disabled.

My pc is connected to the ethernet chord at home. I can go anywhere else and connect with a wireless connection but I can't in my own house. Every time I try I get an error the the network adapter isn't found. The trouble shooter can't even fix it. Everyone else in the house has no issues connecting with a wireless connection.The wireless connection has worked maybe twice for me since I purchased the laptop (May 2012). Since I am more comfortable at my desk it's no issue but there is a new printer that I can't connect to because I can't download the driver because I have to unplug my laptop to go in the other room to get to it.
