I recently upgraded my Dell 2320 Inspiron all in one to Windows 10 and since doing so I am greeted with the limited internet connection problem (wifi). I have tried the TCIP reset suggested in another forum I read however this has not resolved the issue. What I can do as this is my home office computer.
View 1 RepliesI have been using this version of windows 10 from last 1 month. I installed all the drivers and everything was working just fine. From last few days my wifi driver isn't responding. I tried reinstalling the driver but the problem still exists.
I can connect through the Ethernet cable and the Bluetooth driver is also working. Only the wifi driver has stopped.
My laptop is Dell inspiron 5520
I had been under the impression that if you had a PC with UEFI (instead of the legacy BIOS), you couldn't boot from a CD or DVD drive. Having just gotten my first PC with UEFI, I was delighted to find this Dell article on how to do it here:

I followed that procedure on my new Dell Inspiron 15 5559 laptop, and booted Linux Mint successfully from the DVD I have it on. One of the considerations is that you have to disable "secure boot". Not ever having had that before, I didn't hesitate to do that. I imagine that would be a handy feature if you were worried about boot sector viruses, but I've never seen but one instance of one in 35 years of working with PCs, and that was on a neighbor's PC. I also noticed that booting was considerably faster.
I've just done a clean install of W10 on my Dell Inspiron 7537 laptop. I turned off the laptop last night when the battery was about half discharged.
I tried turning on the laptop today after it had been off 18 hours and it was completely dead - there was no response to the power on button and no charging light despite the charger outputting the correct voltage.
I read online about removing the battery so I did this. I removed the battery, pressed the power button for 60s then plugged in the power lead and hey presto the laptop started! I then put the battery back in and started W10 fine. The battery showed 56% charge so the battery wasn't flat.
I can only think there was a poor battery connection which prevented the laptop starting and removing and replacing the battery cured this.
As the title says how exactly do you achieve this?
I have an ISO Ran RUFUS 2.6
GPT Partition Scheme for UEFI
Fat 32
8192 Default
X Quick Format
X Create a bootable disk using
X Create Extended label and Icon Files
so the next part is the Kicker Dell did a number on their Bios and rather than using standard logic as we have done so many years just setting the boot order to "Boot USB" first, you "Only" have the option to create a "Boot Program"!!! so you select your USB Drive then which ever file you want it to boot I'm Assuming? So I tried selecting Setup, bootmgr.efi, and autorun with no results!
I get the secured boot error crap, turn that off and I get Legacy BIOS (that defeats the entire point) What the hell happened to Win95 Boot Discs and FDISK?
I am so frustrated with this garbage, I found out the hard way with Windows 10 and trying to nuke the SSD and put a clean install of 8.1 on it.
I just upgraded to Windows 10 and lost my audio output device.

View 5 RepliesI have a relatively new Dell Inspiron 7000 series (7548). Installed Windows 10 and about 15 seconds after logging in I keep getting an error message about an internal power failure. What an absolute f#$% up. I have never had a problem with the laptop. I tried the Restore System Point option but it says that there aren't any system points saved.

View 3 RepliesAfter updating win 10 from 8.1, am getting the frequent pop when ever i use the touchpad. (pic attached)
1) Resinstalled driver, still popup continues
2) using autorun app, i have tried to remove the entry (It stops the popup but the Dell touchpad utility is not starting up, so I cannot use the scrolling and the gesture support)
3) Again I turned on the services from autorun, popup came again
4) Tried cleaning registry by ccleaner, still the issue persists.
5) Tried to reset windows, but tat also not happening (boot device failure)

I own a Dell Inspiron N5547, updated from W8.1 to W10 Pro a few days back. The Dell Touchpad came installed with the upgrade, and for the first 2 days, all the gestures were working perfectly. On the third day, the three finger scroll up (for task view) stopped working and invokes Cortana instead. I went on the Dell Touchpad program and tried to untick the three finger tap for Cortana, but to no avail. Its really annoying, I tried to restart my latpop but faced the same problem.
I tried to search for solutions, one included uninstalling the Dell Touchpad from Programs and Features, then downloading the latest version from the Dell website. I did so, and installed it again, and once again for the first day the three finger scroll was working perfectly, but when I woke up the next morning, it started invoking Cortana again.
I have dell Inspiron 3537 Laptop recently update in windows 10 before it was using windows 8.1 that time my laptop gesture touch pad was working when I scroll in our touch pad with 2 finger it was working but now is not working. My touch pad driver already installed and update.

View 19 RepliesI've installed windows 10, but I've got a strange problem. My WiFi connection randomly gets limited for one second. It isn't so bad, when I'm browsing, but if I wanna download something... that's terrible :S 'cause when the wifi stops, the download stops too... What can I do? I think it's not my laptops problem, because before win10 - on windows 8.1 - it worked fine. If it matters something, it gets limited in about every 5 or 10 minutes.
View 9 RepliesI updated to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1
Connection to Internet through Wi-Fi is not happening after that though it is happening via LAN Cable.
Whenever I try to connect through Wi-Fi it gets stuck showing Limited Connectivity and No Internet Access.
I went through some threads and found that it can be solved by disabling "Block Internet Connection Sharing" setting in Bit Defender but I am not using Bit Defender.
I am using Windows Defender instead and am not able to find such setting in that.
I've just updated to 10 after getting my computer back up after moving, and for the most part have really been liking it. Here are a couple of the more annoying issues I've been having:
1) Every time I restart/shut down/reboot my computer, upon logging into windows my Wi-Fi has 'limited' connectivity to my router. I use a belkin USB wi-fi adapter, and have been for years with no issues like this. Windows 10 is the only new guy to the party. The only way I'm able to get it to work is to click disconnect, wait a few seconds, then click connect.
2) I can only run my Outlook 10 as administrator, which you can't do from icons on the task bar, and which also blocks some functionality within the program. When I try to run it w/out administrator it says I don't have permission to access one of my email addresses' .pst folder (yahoo). No error when I run as administrator, though.
My Internet through ethernet and wifi were both working fine yesterday and now nothing..
I've tried troubleshooting, Driver installs, ip config, firewall settings, and spent hours reading forums but just can't sort it.

I am experiencing Problem with the wifi connectivity after I updated my Dell Inspiron 15 3521. I updated the Dell Wireless 1703 802.11b/g/n (2.4GHz) to the latest and tried every steps I could find in the blogs, youtube and communities talk but still couldn't fix the problem.
View 9 RepliesI'm currently experiencing loss of internet connectivity. My wifi is working on my other devices, phone, iPad etc. but on my Windows 10 laptop the wifi signal shows as "limited" and I have on connection.
View 2 RepliesYesterday i installed Windows 10, all was fine, but after hour of working, i saw that my wifi connection goes to limited and i don't have internet acces. I need to disconnect and connect and it works for 30-45 minutes, and then again go to limited. I have windows 7 before, and there i don't have this problem, but when i tried windows 8(half year ago) i have same issue.

I think it's maybe problem with my network adapter driver( Broadcom 4313GN 802.11b/g/n 1x1 Wi-Fi adapter ), because i think it's old. It is from 15/08/2012. Version: 6.30.59.49
I have a laptop with Windows 10, and it has been working fine for months. Yesterday I thought I had a connection issue with the Internet, and set the computer aside until it was resolved. Later I checked my phone, and saw that the WiFi is actually working just fine. I have restarted and reset and tried to connect to Hotspots and all sorts of netsh commands.
View 2 RepliesI am facing a problem with the Bluetooth connectivity in my laptop(OS:windows 10). If i connect to any Bluetooth device (phone/audio), wifi becomes limited and I'll not be able to access the internet. I'm facing this problem only after upgrading to windows 10.

View 5 RepliesI got a new Dell this year, which came with Windows 7 (Dell Precision M4800), and it was working perfectly until the Wi-Fi stopped working. After hours of research and troubleshooting and updating, I figured out that the one and only reason my WiFi wasn't working was because my hardware WiFi switch was not working. In other words, even when I switch it into the on position, it still stays off.
With Windows 7, there was a convenient fix: go into my Bios, go into the wireless category, and tell the Bios to ignore the WiFi switch. This fix worked, and I forgot all about the problem until I upgraded to Windows 10. The WiFi stopped working again. So I went through all that hullabaloo of updating things, and nothing worked. So I isolated the problem to the WiFi switch.
I went back into my Bios, and found a disclaimer: For Windows 8 systems, the Bios does not affect wireless capability because they use their own OS drivers. In other words, for Windows 8 and up, I can't use the Bios to ignore my broken hardware switch. Here is my question: aside from replacing my WiFi switch, is there a way to turn wireless capability on in Windows 10? Is there a way to make Windows ignore the hardware switch?
I went through hours of customer support as well, and 40 minutes after I told them my switch was broken, they told me, " It appears to be a hardware issue." I do like a laugh, but I actually need my WiFi, I am temporarily downgrading back to Windows 7 until I can resolve the issue. But I really do like Windows 10, so I'd like to go back to it asap.
After upgrade Dell Inspiron 580 to win 10 the system boot option F12 seems disabled and the box will not boot from the alternate drives (cd then USB) enabled on the motherboard. F2 still brings up the system motherboard edit.
The failure to boot from cd defeats my drive imaging backup software.
I am unable to find a secure boot option on the motherboard, so I suspect the issue is something else.
