Bug Description
Ok I am typing on my old laptop. I have a strange problem with my new Dell xps studio 13. The Wifi driver on it is not working correctly. I can get my wifi to work but for some reason the signal is EXTREMELY weak. I can get a great signal when I boot into windows. So I know it is not a card issue but rather a driver issue. Even then the signal on my old lap top is really strong. On my old laptop. I have 4 out of 5 bars. On my Dell xps I have next to NONE. It takes like 10 mins to even get it to get a lock. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this. I trying to use Ndiswrapper to install the windows driver. But I can not figure out how to do that. Because it always says driver not working. So I may not be stearing Ndis to the right place. This problem is also present in Kubuntu too.
This is for Ubuntu 9.04
This the card I have that is listed on the Dell site.
Wireless Networking Cards
Dell Wireless 1510 802.11n Half Mini-Card
Any suggestions?
Thanks
This is 64bit Ubuntu
