I just got my new Dell Inspiron 7737 Laptop and installed Windows 7 on it. I found all the drivers coresponding to this model and all drivers are working well.

Now my problem is:

First time I connected to my wlan (I´m using two wlans in a big flat) there was no problem at all. I connected to the first and checked the "Allways connect to this network" checkbox. I did the same thing with the second wlan... No problem.

Now, after a week of working with the new laptop, I consider problems with the wlan adapter... mostly I do not shot-down the laptop, I just close the display cover for sending laptop in standby mode. After waking it up again (opening cover, press power, windows is resuming session) the laptop does´nt connect automatically to both of the wlans. When I try to connect manualy I get the message: "Connection to WLAN is not possible" (not exactely this words, because I have a german version).

Then I click on "Resolving network problems", Win7 starts to check for connection problems and after a while (saying "Reseting network adapter") the laptop connects automatically to the primary wlan... Like there never was a problem...

I don´t think that the problem is on the wlan-router because of following reasons:

1) I use two different models for two wlans, the problem occurs on both routers

2) I use the wlan extensively with two smart phones and two other laptops - no problem

Any idea on how to solve this problem would be much apriciated.

Thank you in advance for your ideas.

Best regards,

Ingmar

This could be due to your WLAN adapter being in power save mode. Check your device settings and if it is checked to turn off the adapter on the power / advanced tab, uncheck and save. That should resolve the issue
