Device Manager indicates an unknown device: Network Controller. I have downloaded some drivers from dell and have scanned this forum; downloaded some recommendations and re-started the laptop, but still, the device manager. can someone please direct me where to download the network controller driver. Thank you so much.

 allab,

You do not mention the computer you are needing the network driver on. You can click the link below and add your service tag and or click the auto-detect button on the page. It should detect your system and configuration as well as show you the drivers needed for your computer.

sir jesse, the am using an inspiron 15 (3521) with express service code.

if i click the link below, i go back to where i was lost.

been here and done diagnostics; and more, , ,

had downloaded, installed drivers under a pull down menu titled networks, with three files;

had re-started my laptop as recommended.

had even downloaded, installed chips something from this dell drivers webpage and in so doing, had to download/install also windows .net framework or something.

am i missing something here, sir jesse?

maybe there is no network controller inside this dell laptop?

this forum is my last resort and i am hoping someone could direct me to where i could download a driver for the network controller.

thanks indeed for the time.

appreciate your continued patience.
