No, I can't. It is a lenovo laptop connected to their ultrabase. There is no DVI connection. Before purchasing the ultrabase I did check to see if the display port would support the native resolution of the u2711 and it does.
Sorry, yes it is a docking station. The only connection that I have is a VGA from the laptop, but that will not support the native resolution of the monitor...

And your using the Dell provided DP cable? Can you test the monitor through DVI? Is that a Dell laptop?

Is the ultrabase some sort of dock? If yes, can you go directly to the laptop?

Two variables we never tested on (Lenovo PC and dock). Short of finding another PC with DP to test on, I am out of ideas.
