dmo3.5rsa,   Make a system restore point.   You still have the Dell Wireless 1702 802.11b/g/n drivers on the system?   Go to device manager, right click on the Dell Wireless 1702 802.11b/g/n adapter, left click uninstall. Tell it to remove the drivers.   Restart your computer.   When you log in with an unrestricted account, the new hardware wizard will find the drivers for this adapter, again.   Go to device manager, network, double click on Dell Wireless 1702 802.11b/g/n, click on power management. Uncheck the box, allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.   Also click on advanced and see if this adapter has antenna diversity. This is a newer adapter, so I'm not sure if it has it or not. If it does have Antenna Diversity, change it from Auto to Aux, then restart the computer.   See the network now?   Places to look to see if your Connection is enabled     Rick
