How to Install Drivers in Microsoft® Windows® on Dell Systems
Since the operating system was re-installed did you remember to go to drivers and downloads, enter your service tag(DO NOT POST SERVICE TAG here or your post will get deleted, since it contains your personal information), and install these drivers in this order.
Desktop System Software or Notebook System Software
Chipset or SMBus driver
Processor Driver (if applicable)
Video
Audio (sound)
Input Drivers (keyboard/mouse)
Modem
Network CardRick
You know... I did it in the way which is writted in the link you gave. But not in the way you wrote. I installed modem card thinking that it's a Network Interface Card(NIC).
By the way, when i write my service tag, I get for network only two drivers.. one is wireless 1390 network card, which doesn't help me, and second one is bluetooth.
I though that i need an ethernet driver, so i downloaded not for my service tag, but for all inspiron 1520s intergrated broadcom driver. It really helped, now, when i plug in my cable (now not talking about wireless), my connection of ethernet is ok. But wireless not working anyway (without cable (lol)). I really don't know what to do.
mamuc,
The both usually won't work at the same time, so if you are connected with the ethernet cable, you can turn the wireless card off. Usually a switch or press the blue Fn and F2 at the same time.
Now try these Recommended Wireless Router Settings in your wireless router to make your connection work at its best.
Also try reading...

I know that, i turned off wireless card when i pluged in ethernet cable, but it worked with that broadcom intergrated driver.
my router settings are the same as recommended and repairing doesn't help. My wireless card is 1390 wireless MiniCard. I have no other selection to download, because there i can see only two drivers shown. Can it be not a driver problem?
