Intel Inspiron N5010 Wireless Driver Problem
Hello,
I just bought a new Dell Inspiron N5010, installed Windows 7 32-bit OS.
And then I tried to download from the support.dell site the Wireless Driver but it turns out that they only support Windows 7 64-bit OS.
I also downloaded Intel Wireless connection utility to my laptop and it also tells me that the network adapter is not installed. Needless to say I tried to use the 64-bit driver given in the dell support site but that didnt work.
So my Big querstion is: Where can i download a wireless driver (or in fact any driver) for N5010 that supports win 7 32-bit ?

Which wireless card did you order with the system? There are cards other than Intel - the 1501 is the standard one, which is a Broadcom card.

The specs make it look like a low-end base model - so it likely has the wireless 1501 card:

Use the service tag at the Dell support site where you purchased the system to identify the wireless card.

HI,
Greetings!.
My first mail on dell community comes here.
You can overcome this issue by downloading the wireless driver for N5030 for windows7 32-bit. Download Dell Wireless WLAN 1501 Half Mini-Card (4313bgn) from here [http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&ServiceTag=&SystemID=INSPIRON_N5030&os=W732&osl=EN]

Arif,
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my problem and being the first one to solve it:)
I cant express enough how happy and grateful I am. In fact I would have taken my PC to the store tomorrow to fix it if u hadnt been so helpful to reply.
My deepest gratitudes and I guess until the next problem appears,
