A few more suggestions.....

Check wireless status in link below

Check WIFI switch is turn on and make sure Airplane mode is turn off. At left bottom of taskbar, click on windows icon, click on Settings, and then Network & Internet

Dell doesn't list any windows 10 drivers for your system.

www.dell.com/.../manuals

However, you can go to Device Manager, stroll down to Network adapter, and then expand it. Hopefully, you'll see WIFI ( from windows updates) driver, right click on driver and then update it.

Lastly....

Type troubleshooting control panel onto the [Cortana] search box, click View All, and then windows updates. You can click on the other troubleshooting tools as well.

Thanks Mr. LSUFAN51

I have tried all your suggestions  .  But still Wifi is giving trouble now and then  .  To over come this problem,  i am switiching off the system and restarting then the wifi  is working.  If the system has gone to sleep mode ,  when switching on ,  the same problem comes.

As advised by you,  tried through device manager, under network adapter,  the folloiwng are appearing not wifi.

Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N2230

when i tried for updating the  drivers through online,  the message has poped up as THE BEST DRIVER SOFTWARE FOR YOUR DEVICE IS ALREADY INSTALLED.  WINDOWS HAS DETERMINED THE DRIVER SOFTWARE  FOR YOUR DEVICE IS UPTO DATE.
