I sure do wish I came and checked out these forums before I bought 2 Dell laptops (Inspiron 15r), thinking that I'd be able to use my 5Ghz Wireless N network with them. If it's the correct one, change it to 802.11bgn, click apply, then change it to 802.11abgn click apply, ok Make sure the Bands to scan has the proper box selected. You should see a screen that looks like this.Ĭlick on advanced settings. You should get a screen that looks like.Ĭlick on Launch control options Wi-Fi Catcher.

It’s taken me three weeks to even get even this much!ĭell Wireless 1501 (802.11n) WLAN half mini-Card Me no get it.Īlso, this is what I got just last night from tech support on this card, though it doesn’t state data rates – odd. Weirdly, on my 1318 which has a DW1395 2.4GHz card in it, it DOES have that tab on the wifi setup (BTW, if "quickset" in the search doesn't pull it up for you try "Mobility center") but on my 1458 which has the 1501 it has just the "Radio Control Options" tab. I was actually replying to PudgyOne since he's gotten it to work on his 1458. When launched I am unable to check the box to "enable Wi-Fi Catcher Network Locator". In the quickset folder there is a seperate app for the Wi-Fi catcher. When I launch the Windows Mobility Center Wi-Fi catcher is not a selection. I did locate the quickset app in c:/program files/Dell/Quickset. I updated to the latest driver however noticed that the supported OS is Vista and not Win 7, it loaded OK so was not concerned. Should there be seperate driver for Win 7? I know the the 5GHz radio on the Netgear is working because my MacBook draft-N can detect the network. Because of the 72mbps link speed does this mean that I am connected at 802.11n with a degraded speed. This is only on the 2.4 GHz radio, the DW1501 does not see the 5GHz radio network. The DW1501 link speed with WEP is 54mbps, if I turn off WEP and go with no encryption I get 72mbps link speed. Have a Netgear 802.11n simultaneous dual band 2.4/5 GHz router WNDR3400. Having the same problem on a Studio 1558 running windows 7 with a DW1501 wireless card.
