    Hi,
    My Dell XPS 15 (9550) stopped connecting to my home network. I have tried everything on this page
    http://windowsreport.com/windows-10-cant-connect-this-network/

    I tried to get it to connect to my phones hotspot as well and no luck. This leads me to believe the dell is the issue as all other devices in my house are working.

    The network adapter (dell 1830) shows no issues and has the latest driver 1.555.0.0
    thanks for any input

    If it can't connect to any network and you did that checklist I suggest a backup and reinstall, should that throw a blank restore your backup and call Dell to replace the card.
