I went in to town to connection to cable with wireless router high speed connection to get Windows 7 updates but this onboard wifi card seems to recieve and reports wifi signals fine but trying to get it to connect and go is another. I have installed Vista and the drive for my onboard wifi card works fine. My onboard wifi card with XP works great. I currently have stinky dialup internet and live in a rurual country area but sometimes go up in town to visit a spot that has cable wifi connection. So, I'm guessing they do not support and offer a Windows 7 driver for my onboard wifi card? I went to Dell support / Driver download website page and I entered in our Dell Service Tag number and in the drag box, they are NO Windows 7. I have freshly formatted hd and fresh full install of Windows 7 Ultimate and seems to load and work great BUT. I have made a Acronis backup image of my Dell 1501 laptop so I can quickly within 30 min.s pop back my Windows 7 Ultimate back on when I can either find and get a Dell Inspiron 1501 onboard wifi driver that works OR buy a 100% sure Windows 7 USB wireless adapter with driver. I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 currently using XP w/SP3 as I'm typing now. Subject of help needed: Dell Inspiron 1501 onboard wifi card not working with Windows 7 Ultimate and NEED help getting a working driver. I was searchn on the net for Dell Inspiron 1501 help.
