Hi florecitaro,
If the system is more than 30 feet away from the router, it could be the distance and interference issue.
Check if you could connect to any other available network.
Update the latest wireless drivers available at the Dell support site. To know what type of wireless card is installed, click Start and type Device Manager.
In Device manager, expand Network adapters. Note the wireless card model.
On the Dell support site, enter the service tag and select the operating system to narrow down the search for the correct drivers. Download and install the wireless drivers based on the wireless card model.
If the issue persists after the wireless drivers are updated, run custom scan on the wireless card using PC check up in Dell support center.
Do reply with the results.

florecitaro,
Try reading...
Software Updates Causes Wireless Connectivity Issue Or Unable to Connect to Internet
If the article does not help solve the problem, Can you run Finding System Information REMOVE YOUR PRODUCT ID, if using XP, run an ipconfig /all log and post it back here.
Also include the virus program and firewall you're using.
