Inspirion 3521 - Network controller driver

Hello there!


I have recently purchuased Inspirion 3521 laptop. As soon as I installed Windows 7, wireless network stopped working. In Device manager there are missing drivers for Network controller, but when I try to install them process fails because "Setup has detected an incompatible version of Windows".

Please provide a proper solution to this problem.

Thank you :)

muce,

When you installed the operating system, did you install the Dell System Software(if applicable) and the chipset drivers first? If not, the rest of the drivers will fail to install. How to Download and Install Drivers in the Correct Order

Start with the Dell System Software and the chipset drivers and follow the list.
