Hi Dlpease,
Thank you for your reply.
Please click on the link below for issues concerning home networking setup and troubleshooting for Windows Vista.
In case you are not able to connect to the internet, you may install the drivers from the Resource/Utility CD or DVD which you may have received with your system. If you do not have the cd/dvd, please download the drivers from the Dell Support website to another computer and burn it to a cd. Then install the drivers on this computer using that cd.
Once the drivers have been installed, please re-start your computer and then attempt to connect to the internet.
Hope this resolves the issue for you.
Let me know if further help is needed.
Thanks and regards,
Babita S
