WiFi problem on Windows 8 preview
Hello,
My notebook model is inspiron R14 N5420. Now I am using windows 8 preview (64 bit). But unfortunately my WiFi does not work. Using function key show me WiFi detected but network notification does not show that. It is always painful for me. My office always connected by WiFi network. For this reason I have facing great trouble now. Please give me a solution.

Hi CHOMRICH,
I would suggest that you update the 'Wireless' card driver from 'Device Manager'. The following steps will help you update the 'Wireless' driver.
You must be logged on as an administrator to perform these steps.
Open Device Manager by clicking the using the 'Search' option in the 'Charms Bar', Administrator permission required If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. In Device Manager, locate the device you want to update, and then double-click the device name. Click the Driver tab, and then click Update Driver and follow the instructions.
If that doesn’t fix the issue, you may update the latest 'Wireless' driver available for 'Windows 7'. The following link will help you to download the latest driver:

Once the link is open, locate the ‘Wireless’ card available on the system under ‘Network’ and install the driver after downloading it.
I hope this helps.
Please let me know in case of any queries.
Thanks and regards
