Dell Notebook Wifi Intel Pro Builtin Stopped Working & Cable 2 Modem Too..


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys

Dell Notebook Wireless Internet Connection WiFi & Cable connection to Internet has naturally died for

no reason, and my home modem is fine as PC on cable & nokia mobile e90 wifi internet web surfing is

working perfect. So Dell Inspirion 6000 notebook the problem of why no internet connect wifi or cable

must be inside the dell? (I think I got it web surfing on Dell working using AIS 1-2 call internet via

Nokia E90 as modem, but that is not Wifi Broadband speed, it just GPRS speed or whatever AIS works

off... not fast enough for watching rock videos on YouTube!)

Intel Pro Wireless is built-In WiFi main application main wifi controller & some other Broadcom somthing - sorry I am a Techno Phobe Builtin Stopped Working and I tried to use the Windows XP build in Wifi thing & followed all the troubleshooting, (disabled Intel Pro Wirless etc - re-enabled it etc etc) I can see my Modem Wifi access point in Intel Wifi controller & WEP 10 figure code is correct,

etc... so my instruction & troubleshooter on Windows solved nothing.

**Important Cable to internet modem from Dell Notebook does not work either, I think the Broadcom controller is for that? the Dell Inspriation 6000 Notebook WILL NOT connect to the web internet either from Wifi nor from modem & odd thing

is it was working perfect & then next day all died. (I do reboot, use Glary Soft 1 click, & DeFraggler & turn NoteBook off when I

am not using i. Now the hard discs are full ish C drive got about 35% & D Drive about 9%, & I do not work the "B*ll*cks out of

the Dell Inspirion 6000 laptap as I bought it in December 2005, it has been reconditioned twice, but I accept it is a "pensioner"

or is it?

My main Modem works fine as PC works off cable & Mobile phone Nokia E90 Wifi gets internet perfect off the Netgear modem & notebook MCN number I logged into Netgear Modem, so Dell Notebook is a recognized device.

I went on NoteBook to Device Hardware Manager & I Notice there is a YELLOW QUESTION MARK or Exclamation Mark at PCI MODEM which obviously means there some sort of problem with PCI Modem if that is correct term for Device I am using

Perhaps my PC DIY trying to learn to fix this myself, & being not too technical by nature, I suspected I "Fecked Up"

something making a worse problem, even though the Dell NoteBooks internet web Wifi & Cable connectivity Died over night.

I am of an uneducated guesstimate & praying (LOL) that there is some simple solution to this strange

death of internet (and it was NOT caused my me poking around either).

I know its a bit more complicated that a Level 1 Support Call... have you the power plugged in, can you reboot,

unplug & replug the mouse, defrag the disc, thing... so I am hoping someone who is IT Computer Savvy

on here end my evenings frustration. & say Gerry.. .just do A B C 1 2 4 reboot and Magic Fix happens!

I rather have tooth pulled with no anesthetic, than bring Dell to Tucom as in fixing down there, I always

return to find they broke something else. And notebook is too old to bring down to Steve on 3rd Road,

who does a great job, as notebook is not for business use no more. (I just want to surf the web

& look at me Thin Lizzy Youtube vids on the dam_n notebook & keep PC for work..)

Any Help would be greatly appreciated before I garrote myself while committing a mortal sin of self pleasure over this dam_n note book and its natural internet connectivity death!

I wonder since I got web internet connection on Dell notebook via Nokia E90 AIS 1-2 Internet (Gprs ?) as

modem for notebook.... since Nokia E90 works great for Wifi... is there any WAY I can use the

Nokia E90 as a WIFI modem feeding off my Netgear main Wifi modem to get Wifi broadband speed

this way on Dell notebook?

I read & search with my limited IT skills in Nokia E90 Manual & Online Nokia site for an answer to

this question but I could not find anything to explain if I can do this or not?

Any ideas please?

Thanks in advance for all help.

(Notebook is also overheating a lot & battery which is original from Dell in Dublin even with 24 hour charging, lasts only 15 mins.

I ready the other Thread on chap with notebook battery problem, which maybe is a separate issue to why No More Internet Connection on dell... & I will get battery issue fixed)

Yellow Exclamation in the device managermean that the driver is not corrupted or not installed. Try using System restore function to get bask to the date before the problems started. Using XP? I doubted that the the built-in LAN card and WIFI card went bad at the same time.

Sorry too fast, I mean the drivers for the devices are corrupted or not installed.

I had a suspicion in my after natural death of internet connectivity, that my DIY poking about,

I fecked up drivers, (see when net works, I can go to Irish Dell website, out in Serial number

& it updates drivers, but know there is no DRIVER for that PCI Modem on my notebook,

as I did driver roll back & it found nothing for a Driver.

(I think whatever I was at, I did more damage on DIY making original "natural death" problem worse... )

QUES: SYSTEM RESTORE....

I think I might have deleted System Restore points in my trying to free up disc space.

QUESTION IS.... If I do in theory... a SYSTEM RESTORE to day 3 months ago...

will I loose files & data I have transferred to the Dell NoteBook since the System Restore Date.

Since I am using notebook for rock videos I download, eBooks, & leisure web surfing, (and my external hard disc is full)

If I SYSTEM RESTORE to say e,g, May 2009 will I lose all the Motorhead , Lizzy & Iron Maiden real player downloads etc

I have transferred to notebook and all other files PDF eBooks on martial arts ( I got 100s etc), uploaded in time

since Last RESTORE POINT?

I suppose another solution is load up the AIS 1-2 call 50 Baht 24 hour internet access GPRS Deal

& use Nokia E90 mobile phone as dial up modem, access Dell.ie Ireland web site, bang in notebooks id numbers

& download the drivers?

Probably will take a long time, but is using mobile as modem on Gprs workable for driver download?

I'd really hate to loose my rock vids, as I just reorganised playlists & hours of work on notebook the other day

re rolling back to SYSTEM RESTORE POINT?

Thanks for the help folks, apologies re long posts but I feel the more info provided upfront,

it will cut down on my potential stupid question factor,

Thanks again! :-)

Any more feedback re OP & Reply.

God Bless

It is always a good practice to backup important DATA before using the System restore, any application programs you have installed will have to be reinstalled after you restore it back to prior date.

Otherwise you will have to down load the proper/correct missing drivers for your hardware, you should be able to download directly from Dell web site, make sure to use the model number and the service tag number to get the correct drivers. http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/...;l=en&s=gen
