Dell Wireless 1703 wont connect to WiFi on Windows 8

Hi,

I recently received a new XPS 8500 with Windows 8 installed however the wifi refuses to connect (other devices have no issues on the same wifi network). Is this a known issue with the current drivers for windows 8?

Hi Mark,

I recommend wireless drivers update for the computer.

  1. Visit the following website: http://dell.to/Mbe3zg
  2. Enter the Service tag of the computer in the box provided and click “Submit”.
  3. In the next page, click drop down arrow to select the Operating System which is installed in the computer.
  4. Under category Network, select the wireless network drivers accordingly and click “Download File” and save the file on desktop.
  5. Run the downloaded file and restart the system.
  6. Try connecting to the wireless network. 

I have also provided a link below for the wireless issues :http://dell.to/ZKyq8W

Please let me know if you have any other queries.
