    This computer is starting to drive me insane. My latest problem is connecting to the internet. Whenever I try to connect to a wireless network, I am unable to successfully connect. I can connect to the network itself, but I am not able to connect to the internet. At first I thought it was just because the networks I was trying to connect to were too weak or were protected, but we just set up our own network in our apartment, and my roommates can connect, but I still can't. Do you have any suggestions?

    Is the switch on the side is turned on right? Otherwise it could be a problem with the hardware or maybe the software, call dell and see what they can do for you.
