Wireless connection

Hellp folks,

I've just bought a Dell 3011 AIO Unit. However it is not picking up my wireless home broadband and I'm having to remain plugged in ( which is a pain).

 

Dell's main site hasn't been much help ( still waiting on the site analyzing my system etc having registered the service tags) so I'm on here for some tips to get my new Dell unit connected before I give up and send it back.

 

Cheers

 

G.

G,

Can you run Finding System Information REMOVE YOUR PRODUCT ID and REGISTERED OWNER and post the information back here.

 

Also provide Network Interface

 

What virus program and firewall is installed?

Hi Rick ,

Thanks for getting back; much appreciated. I've ran the finding system info however i'm having difficulty removing ( due to trying to locate the info) the product id and registered owner details. It states ' please remove the product id and registered owner before posting' ....how is this done as it won't allow you to delete it ?

Thanks

Graeme

Hi ,

I think I was following the instructions 'literally' then I realised I was to delete prior to posting ;-).

Cheers

Graeme,

I do not see a wireless adapter listed, under network adapters.

Look in these places to see if your Connection is enabled

I only needed you to remove personal information from

Registered Owner: 
Registered Organization:
Product ID:

The system model has been removed or changed.

This is a new system, so I would Contact Dell Technical Support and let them remote in and see if they can fix it. If not, they may have to send a person out to replace the wireless adapter. It may have come loose or failed.
