    This has been on the blink for months. I finally just went to wifi only a while back but now a wired port is prefered. Long story short I have tried updating the drivers on the Dell site and the port is still not sending. It detects the network but wont connect after a fresh driver install. I know enough to be dangerous so don't assume I've tried what would be obvious to you. Suggestions welcome. Thanks
