Please make sure that the wireless key is turned on. From the KeyBoard press-----Fn+F2 together. This will show you your wireless network and then you can cannot to that.

Hi, First, you need to make sure you have installed wireless adapter driver properly. http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?os=W732&catid=-1&dateid=-1&impid=-1&osl=EN&typeid=-1&formatid=-1&servicetag=&SystemID=VOS_N_1015&hidos=WW1&hidlang=EN&TabIndex=&scanSupported=True&scanConsent=False After that, go to Device Manager and make sure it works without any problem. If the issue persists, please reset the router and let me know what error message is received.
