Dell XPS 13 (2015) can't see 5 GHz network

Hello

I have the new laptop XPS of 13 2015 with Broadcom 802.11ac configuration. I am unable to see my WiFi 5 GHz network and can connect only to the 2.4 Ghz band. My router is the Asus RT-N66U. Is there a solution?

SAL

I had the same problem.

If you uninstall the wireless card in Device Manager (select the option to also delete the driver) and then check for changes on the hardware, Windows uses its own built the pilot who can see 5 GHz networks.  It seems that the driver from the Dell Web site is borked.

My concern is that this driver is not updated, so I would like to know where to get more drivers for this device.

  • Mac OSX 10.8.4 can't see 5 GHz Linksys EA6500 wireless network

    Hello

    We have an EA6500 of Linksys router work of office. I found that Macs can't see 5 GHz network quite often but can almost always see the 2.4 Ghz network. If I restart the Mac then it can sometimes see the 5 GHz network but it's far from being reliable in trying to connect.

    Once all connected works correctly, it's just the operating system to display a list of network. If I same boot Mac in Windows 8 he can see the 5 GHz Wireless reliable every time.

    The office is in a shared office space, and there are many visible wireless in the room, about 12 now.

    I have the latest firmware of the router Linksys EA6500 (1.1.28.147876) and all software updates on Mac OSX. I fiddled with the network of automotive channels, to the setting of specific channels that seemed empty when I used a phone Android to see how busy they were.

    Has anyone seen or had any sort of resolution?

    When I get home, I have the same router and my Mac connect reliably, 100% of the time on the 5 GHz network.

    Well, I got to the low fo this. My steps, in case someone knocks something similar were:

    1. start of Fedora Core 19 Linux on my Macbook Air

    2 tries to connect to various networks near me, even if I didn't have the key

    3. notes that dmesg responded with 'country setting code' and then run dmesg and grep'd for the game of country codes

    4. after hitting one of the wireless networks, I noticed he would lie TW country code

    5. wireless network was not protected and so that a scan of the network, when her and found some web interfaces

    6. connected to the interface web and found it was a VCR Panasonic connect you

    7. once I had the wireless network manager I walked around the building with my iPhone looking force wireless looking where he was stronger.

    8. since I found that the reception office was where he was

    9. the person at the front desk denied that they had any router or wireless, it

    10. they opened a closet that had, a TV Panasonic inside recorder!

    11 identified the router right next to him.

  • Brand new WUSB6300 can't see 5 GHz band - defective?

    Hello. Just bought an adapter nine WUSB6300 that I read on the forums that it is reliable and certified WiFi.

    I currently have an ASUS RT-AC66U dual band Router router and one adapter dual band ASUS USB-AC53 at home for my desktop running Win10, but I had dropouts and I couldn't connect to 5 GHz 802.11ac properly.

    So, I thought that all my problems Wireless will be resolved now, but exactly the opposite happened.

    I installed the drivers from the CD and the new adapter plugged. I have two wireless networks at home, a 2.4 and 5 GHz one, named differently, but my new adapter does not see 5 GHz network.

    I spent hours trying different settings of the router (change of 802.11ac 802.11n and editing the bandwidhts, 20-40-80) but without success. Then I plugged the adapter on my laptop, which has Win7 and I had the same problem, no visible 5 GHz network. I tried different drivers from Linksys - without success. I could see and connect to the network 2.4 GHz, no problem.

    The last thing I'll do, I'll try with another router, before I send it for replacement. But before that, I thought I'll ask the question here: have you had similar problems with your adapter or do you think mine is DOA?

    Change of the wireless router s 5 GHz to channel 36.

  • Resolution issues of image (redirect) on my new DELL XPS 13 (2015)

    I just bought my new DELL XPS 13 inch 2015 model Corei7, touch screen version.  As soon as I came to explore, I noticed that the fonts are super sharp and high resolution, which is great, however, images/logos of websites such as facebook, cnet, and many others is a bit blurry and pixelated. Why is this the case? I have a pro apple mac book and all the images load perfectly here.

    What could be the problem and is it possible that I can find a solution or this?

  • Dell XPS 13 2015 and update of Samsung 950 PRO m2

    When I ordered my Dell XPS 13 May of this year, I ordered it with a disc of 256 GB knowing that I would upgrade eventually to a disk of 512 GB once the new discs of NVMe m2 were out. I didn't do well capture the variations in m2 and when I pre-ordered the 512 GB Samsung 950 PRO NVMe I expected to pop in and go. No luck. I should have known that they would not make it as simple as that... :-(

    The drive is compatible physically of course, but has the "M" key edge connector, while the drive I pulled the connector edge key "B & M. I am running the BIOS A05 on the Dell, but he can't see the PRO 950 drive at BIOS level. The integrated test tool indicates "no hard disk". If this seems to be a BIOS problem.

    Anyone have any ideas? Is it a question of Dell, he argues with a new BIOS update? Or it will never work because the XPS 13 is not compatible with this generation of pilots of M2? Looks like I need to go back to what happens, but if Dell eventually allows, I may buy it again.

    If it won't work, any suggestions on a 512 GB drive that works? Samsung XP941 or XP951 will work? An idea about the difference between the two (the XP951 is $50 + more).

    UPDATE: this player is not compatible with the Dell XPS 13 and probably will never be because of energy consumption (5-7 watts). You just don't want a storage device that power in your laptop. The Samsung SM951 512 GB is the best player at the moment.

    For the record, I was able to get the 950 is recognized Pro to install windows 10 on simply turn on the legacy startup options.  Once turned on my windows install USB he saw as installable media.  After installing the drive had an EFI boot sector, so I was able to disable legacy startup.

  • Dell XPS Duo 12, can't reinstall factory.

    Hello!  I have a Dell XPS 12 duo running Windows 8 that no longer starts.  When it starts, I get a blue screen that says that the computer must be repaired and hit f2, f8 or f12.  When I hit F8, it returns to the same screen.  So it does not start in the recovery strategy.

    I can access installation.  All reports very well and I ran the diagnostics.   I got a USB stick recovery for this computer, so I can't try it, alas.ff

    Using a BartPe USB, I was able to start the computer and check the hard disk.  The recovery partition is still there and seems to be intact.

    So, it looks sort of startup files have been corrupted, and therefore recovery Dell cannot start.

    Anyone know if there is a way to manually create a recovery USB key or do a manual reinstall from the recovery partition using the command line?

    Thank you!

    Walt.

    Walt Hey, how you doing?

    Essentially to manually reinstall your original image, we will need 2 things:

    • ImageX 64-bit
    • Be able to start in a command prompt

    As you say you have a BarPE, I guess we're good with the second element.

    Let's get started :)

    First of all, download imagex from here and unpack it on a USB Flash drive.

    Then, start in recovery media (it can be Win 7/8 or BartPE. (Not sure about this one).

    Now, with the command prompt, start with these:

    • DiskPart
    • the list of flight
    • Select the flight X (where X is the number corresponding to your recovery partition, commonly called as ACB)
    • Assign

    In this way, you only give this volume one letter, so we can get on this.

    Now, type list flight and check what letter has been given to this partition.

    Then we will copy our file imagex.exe in the right place, so...:

    • Type your letter of USB flash drive, and then press enter (example: E: ( )
    • copy imagex.exe X:\Dell\Image (X = your recovery partition)
    • CD X:\Dell\Image
    • ImageX/apply X: banker \Dell\Image\Install.swm X: 1 Y \Dell\Image\Install*.swm
    • Volume ACB letter X:
    • Y: your letter of volume O.S

    Now, let's just wait until the process ends :)

    If you have any problems in doing that, please, let me know ok?

  • Can't see the computer network

    I have two computers running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on my home network. In Windows Explorer under network, n ° 1 sees itself and n ° 2, but no. 2 can't see himself, i.e. cannot see no. 1.  Both can access the internet. The printer is connected to the N1 by USB (we had a lot of trouble at first with Wi - Fi so use cable for this).

    There is no RESIDENTIAL group because I understand there are IPv6 and our router does not support that. I tried the homegroup, but no. 2 could not yet see no. 1. We operate a wireless G network.

    On the computers on that network discovery is and file sharing and printer are on. Protected by password sharing is disabled.

    I saw some comments which may help to a registry cleaning. Could this be true?

    It's fixed!

    I found another thread in that says something about the zone of confidence in their firewall. I went and looked and BINGO! The name of the area was very different in the name of the wireless network. Now it's the same thing and I have reset certain actions and we are connected.

    Yay! I thank very you much for all your hard work with this in mind.

    Moreover, there is no element of network connections in the control panel in computers. Is that how it should be?

  • Pavilion 15 with Realtek rtl8188ee can't see 802.11n network

    Hello

    a new Pavilion 15 with the network card wireless Realtek rtl8188ee - all drivers up to date.

    I have a Netgear router which is dual band and there is a network of 11g and 11n.

    I can connect and use the network of 11g all very well.

    But I don't even see the 11n network.

    Any thoughts?

    Hello:

    If you mean that you cannot connect to the 5.0 GHz band, it's because the wireless RTL8188EE is a unique card band (2.4 GHz) only.

  • Strangest thing: iPhones can't see the wireless network. Why not?

    Suddenly, an iPhone 5 and an iPhone 6 were not connected to the home network. I thought that the wireless router was to have a hiccup. Reset it and still no. Control a connected computer and internet. Thought that it was a wireless problem, but check the settings (I don't mess with) and they are fine. BUT, I realized my iPad is always connected to the network. IPhones don't even see the wireless network. SSID always broadcast on. I tried to enter the SSID and password manually, but iPhones say that the network does not exist. It's the strangest thing. What would make the invisible network for phones all of a sudden? Both phones are differnet OS running. One is the latest version, probably the previous version. It's a FiOS Actiontec router/router wireless. Everyone has heard of such a thing? I do not understand how it is possible...

    Try this on an iPhone. No matter which even with other iOS.

    Tap settings > general > reset > reset network settings

    You will need to enter the password for Wi - Fi.

  • Realtek 8191se in Satellite Pro L640 won't see 5 GHz network

    I have a new Apple Extreme Base Station with full support dual band 802.11n.

    The wireless adapter is a Realtek wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC 8191SE bundled with the laptop when I bought it.

    In any case, first you must make sure that your wireless network card is 802.11 Wlan N capable.
    If the WLan card would support 802.11 Wlan N standard, then I recommend updating the driver WLan.
    You must use the most recent driver from the Wlan card manufacturer page.

    In addition, you must make sure that wireless network adapter has been configured to use the standard 802.11 N.
    You should check the settings in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab.
