Hi @DELL-Cares , I am currently experiencing the same issues with a Vostro 5590 that I activated on July 29th. As the machine belongs to my employer and I require it for work, I would greatly appreciate your promptness and discretion in resolving this issue. 

Thanks.

Hello,

Here are a couple of things you can try.

Please beware do this at your own risk I am not a IT specialist I do this only as a hobby..

1. Set Wifi to "Forget" my network and then re-connect with key re-entry

2. In Device Manager, verified that I have the latest driver 

3. On Dell  site, verified that there is no new driver (for the latest Windows 10 release?)

4. In Device Manager, "Disable"d my wireless device and re-Enabled

5. In Device Manager, uninstalled and then re-installed my wireless device and re-installed

6. In Windows settings, when wifi has failed to automatically re-connect, I can turn it off and then on and it will connect

7. Reviewed all settings, "Connect automatically when in range" is On, "Make this PC discoverable" is On, "Metered connection" is Off (note: these settings are the same as I have always been using)

8. Have tested with my wireless router's 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz connections. Same result regardless of which I set as preferred.

9. When I invoke Windows (typically useless) troubleshooting, it disables and re-enables the wireless device which makes the connection work, so it just tells me that the problem is "fixed" but it doesn't have any reason as to why it wouldn't work in the first place.

If that did not work you can try this:

1. Open Settings from the Start Menu and select Network & Internet.
2. Click Wi-Fi on the left pane and select Change adapter options.
3. Right-click on your Wireless Network Adapter and select Properties.
4. Under Networking tab, select Configure.
5. Click on Power Management tab and check the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power box, then click OK.

 @DELL-Cares I have the same problem on my 2 month old laptop. It is driving me crazy as well

Hello,

This is so typical you can search that so many customers are having the same problem.
