Dell Inspiron 1545 Wireless problem Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN #2
I am working on a friends Dell Laptop. It seems no matter what driver I install
for the Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN #2 it still has problems with it. (Lil exclaimation point)
Dell 1545 Inspiron Windows 7 64-bit
Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN #2 --- At least thats what the device manager says.
Wireless is turned on, but it the icon to connect to wireless networks is not in the system try
in the lower right hand corner. I've tried several different drivers. Anyone else have this problem?
I've also tried system restore and that doesn't seem to work. I also tried to restore the laptop to
its original factory settings with the Dell restore disc, but the disk drive gives me this error...
-------------------------------------------------
"D:\ is not accessible
Access denied"

The DVD-RW is installed properly and there is power to the drive as well. User is system administrator as well.
HELP PLEASE! Very frustrating problems here.
Any suggestions?

Frank,
Places to look to see if the Connection is enabled
If you recently reinstalled the operating system, did you install the drivers in order?How to Download and Install Drivers in the Correct Order
Try running the Finding System Information Tool and post the rest of the information back here. Remember to run as administrator after the tool is extracted.

I had and the same problem and tried everything possible and nothing worked until I order a refurbished wifi replacement car. It fixed the issue immediately.
