Hello, I've got a brand new Dell XPS 13 9350 and I'm having big problems connecting to my houses Wi-Fi network. I live in a student apartment building and we all share Wi-Fi. 95% of the time I simply get the "can't connect to this network" message. The few times I manage to connect it fades away in about five minutes and either comes back for another five minutes or disappears for good. My other devices, that aren't running Win 10(android phone, chromecast), have never had any problem whatsoever with the connection. I also have a desktop that runs Win 10 and connects via Wi-Fi with an ASUS PCE adapter. The desktop connected fine for about 3 months and then I got the exact same problem I have with my laptop now. No matter what I tried I couldn't get it to connect to the houses Wi-Fi connection. After days of googling and trying different fixes I installed this Broadcom BCM-43xx Wireless Lan Drivers Version 7.35.308.0 WHQL driver and the problem was instantly solved. Now, with my laptop I think I've tried all the most common fixes; forgetting the network and adding it manually, searching for the latest drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling the latest drivers from Dell's website, turning off 20/40 coexistance, turning off IPv6(not by tweaking the registry though), manually setting the DNS server IP... I don't know what to do anymore. To summarize: Win 10 desktop connects fine and so does android phone and chromecast but not my new laptop(connects fine to other networks though). I'm guessing it's got to have something to do with Win 10 and/or some driver/setting based on the circumstances. Laptop specs: Network adapter: DW1820A 2x2 802.11ac 2,4/5 GHz Driver: 1.519.0.0 Manufacturer/Driver provider: Broadcom Desktop specs: Network adapter: ASUS PCE-AC68 Driver: 7.35.308.0 Manufacturer/Driver provider: Broadcom Router: Netgear CG3700EMR-1CMNDS

I generated a wireless network report(netsh wlan show wlanreport) http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=08683589474689371643 anyone gifted who can read something from this?

I live in a student apartment building and don't really have access to the router, I think... It's very early in the morning here but I will check for it as soon as I can. I just don't get it though, how come my other devices can connect but not my desktop. Yet my desktop can connect to other networks.

Yes connecting to my phones hotspot works. What do I do... Did a Windows update fuck something up? I checked Asus website for new drivers while connected to the hotshot but I have the latest. When trying to connect via the Asus utility it says I have the wrong pw but I have the right one. I tried logging in and out on my phone and the pw works. So WTF

I tried that but made no difference.

I'm running WiFi on my desktop since a couple of months but tonight I suddenly "can't connect to this network". Me smartphone can connect as usual, my chromecast can connect but not my PC. I run win 10 and use an ASUS PCE-AC68 network card. Full signal, can't connect!?

I had the most fun playing BF2 :rolleyes:

CPU: 6700K@4.2 Ghz GPU: 980 Ti @ 1459MHz / 7800MHz RAM: 16 GB DDR4 2666 MHz Res: 1920x1080 native / 3840x2160 DSR Graphic Settings : Max, MSAAx4 / Max (grass quality: very high), no AA Lowest FPS: ~60 FPS / ~40 FPS* *Quick test, rough numbers I think DSR 4K without AA looks better than 1080p with MSAAx4 but I lose ~20 FPS . The screen I play on is a 1080p 144 Hz monitor and the other connected display which I use for multitasking is 1050p 60 Hz . Tested online among the grassy hills north of the city, highway along the coast and inside the city. Will do more thorough tests later with only my gaming screen connected. Anyone got some tips to optimize performance without losing too much eye candy?

I played Quake when I was like 7 years old... Git gud small sons

Hi, I have updated my PC to Win 10 and it's on an SSD. Now I'm building a new computer, and I was thinking of using my old system SSD with the OS on. So can I just plug the SSD in along with all the new parts and Windows will run as usual? Or maybe I should do a clean install on my PC now, before I move hard drive to the new building ? Someone who did the same thing and know if it works ?

Holy moly, you're actually buying this? What are you going to use it for? I guess you won't be OC'ing?

Have ordered the graphics card now! Still shopping around for the other parts.. MOBO is said to arrive to retailers the 15th. Added the NH-D15, managed to find higher speed memory for the same price via a smaller retailer and changed HDD from green to blue. Still not sure about the case tho :unsure: Updated build

Did you just ignore the latter half of my post? Okay lets break it down: Same price Same functionality Newer product Although by a very slim margin, better performance for gaming
