MIssing my network controller driver after re-installed windows 7
Hi, I have the same problem as woodfox had, in my network there is no wireless network connection icon, My laptop is Dell Inspiron 15 (3521), and that Device Instance Path number is: PCI/VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_00161028&REV_01\4&2C2CDEF9&0&00E1.
I tried to instal various of internet drivers that I have found in dell webpage but it didn't solved the problem.
Thank you

That's the Dell Wireless 1704 Card.
Install http://ftp.dell.com/FOLDER01220058M/1/Network_Driver_3WJ6F_WN_WLAN-6.20.55.5_A03.EXE

Forgot to mention that in Device Manager it says that there is no Network Controller driver, which I cant find anywhere on the internet

I found the Realtek RTL8105E Ethernet controller driver easily for the Inspiron 15 3521. Not sure where you are looking.

I have installed that realtek Ethernet controller driver, but I guess it is not the same as Network Controller driver, since device manager shows that Network Controller driver is still missing, and there is no Wireless Network connection icon on Network Connections tab

Hi,
I have the same problem. I'm running windows 7 ultimate *64 bit. I've selected the right driver from Dell.com, but after i install the drive it give the following erro:" The installer can run on this platform. please select the package four your operating system." i have install the following dirvers for network: Network_Driver_4XPJF_WN_7.061.0612.2012_A01.EXE(14MB),Network_Driver_GMW8T_WN_10.0.0.175_A00.EXE(185MB), DW1703_DW1705_W7_A00_Setup-GMW8T_ZPE.exe(179MB).
what should i do?
