Hi,
Wireless connection issues can be really frustrating because there can be so many different things that can obstruct them. And many of them may be out of your control.
Here is a link to the Dell Networking & Wireless Support Center. It has a ton of good information that may help you to find out what is causing the problems, as well as listing the variables that can effect connection speeds.
Other than formatting your system what else have you tried? Have you updated your driver from our Dell Support Pages? Have you tested the system on other networks and do you see the same speed issues?
What about your router? Have you tried rebooting it to see if that improves your connection? What about updating the firmware on your router? Remember, wireless connection is dependent not just on your system but the capabilities of the router as well.
Have you tried the system in different rooms to see if there might be interference in specific spots that cause problems with your connection?
Please tell us what wireless card you have in the system, and what operating system you're running, and the answers to the above questions and we'll see what else we can think of to help you. But that Wireless Support Center I linked above would be a great place for you to start.
