Drivers for Dell Wireless™ DW5808 Gobi 4G/LTE full Mini-Card on Precision M6800 Running Windows 10

$

This is a follow up post to my original post about Mobile Broadband on M6800.  

I purchased the Dell Wireless™ DW5808 Gobi 4G/LTE full Mini-Card (Manufacturer Part# : 1N1FY | Dell Part# : 1N1FY) and installed it in my Precision M6800.  I went to my local Verizon store and picked up the correct SIM card (based on the IMEI of the card). 


After powering up my laptop, Windows 10 recognized the card and reported it needed a driver.  I went to Dell's website and downloaded what I thought was the correct driver and installed it.  The installation reported that the driver was successfully installed, however Windows Device manager reports the card still has no driver. 

Wash, rinse, repeat over and over again.  So far I have tried all of these drivers, and every one reports the installation went correctly, but Windows 10 Device Manager reports the card has no driver.

Communications_Driver_KT1RD_WN32_6.14.4316.502_A06.EXE

Because I purchased the card from another Vendor (Amazon), Dell Support will not help me -they tell me I need to contact Amazon. (Laptop is still under valid warranty, but it wasn't originally ordered with the card, so they won't provide support). 


Am I doing something wrong?  Is there a magic hidden driver that works?  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks,

-Devin.

Dell laptop and dock does not automatically sleep when removing laptop from dock

Hi there I have a Lattitude e7470 and i am trying to use it with a Dell E-Port Replicator K07A


The system works OK except for this one scenario.


Laptop is docked and closed and i am working on it. I go to undock the laptop to take it with me somewhere and it does not go to sleep. The power policy says that if the lid is closed and the laptop is on battery then it should go to sleep. Whats going on?


If i undock and immediately open and then close the lid it behaves as expected. Obviously for my user, this is not ideal. he just wants to be able to pick up the laptop and go (having it sleep or hibernate when removed from the dock)

How do i force it to go to sleep when i remove it from the dock? there has to be a way. Laptop is windows 10.

My son recently bought the DELL XPS 13 with the Killer NW 1535. Windows 10 OS. He says his laptop is dropping and re-acquiring wifi signal at our home. Seems like the same problem discussed in 2015. Anyone else having this problem? Solutions?

DELL XPS 13 with Killer NW 1535 Card Dropping Wi-Fi Signal

My son bought a new (2016) DELL XPS 13 with Killer NW 1535 card, Win 10, 7th Gen Core i7. Continually drops home's wi-fi signal (not a router problem since other devices are not dropping signal), then re-acquires. Then cycle continues.  Anyone else having this problem? Saw some 2015 posts on Alienware forum that the 1535 card is faulty and Dell has replaced them Intel m.2 wi-fi cards. Thougths?

Dell Inspiron 15 3531 Power Issues?

$

Hello, thank you for using your time to view this thread.

Anyway, I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3531 Laptop. The problem listed below.

When the A/C Adapter ONLY IS ATTACHED (BATTERY REMOVED):

When I press the power button, the battery light blinks once, screen stays black. I can hear the hard drive turn on and spin at normal speed. Then one minute later the laptop will shut down. 

Now, it does different with the BATTERY ONLY ATTACHED:

If the battery is in the laptop, I press the power button, and nothing happens. The battery light stays white. I don't hear the hard drive spinning.

Whats going on here? The laptop is out of Warranty. Re-seating RAM does not work, nor does holding the power button down for 15 seconds.

The latest version 1.10.4 as of today disabled the Speed Shift technology after I updated it.

The original version came with the machine was 1.07.03 IIRC had SS enabled.

I tried to downgrade to 1.07.03 but it wouldn't let me.

So Dell please update the BIOS with SS enabled or give me a way to downgrade the bios.

Thank you!

I have tried everything. Control Panel/Dell Touchpad (off). Control Panel/Mouse (Touchpad off). Fn/F3 (0ff) but NOTHING will turn it off. The light is on saying it is off but it is still on. Very annoying because when I'm trying to type I touch the touchpad by accident and I'm somewhere else.  

Selling this laptop so appreciate any help.

AC adapter makes screen black

$

I have encountered a problem with my Dell Latitude E6500 which operates under Windows 10. When I run the computer on the battery, everything seems quite normal. If I connect the computer to an electrical outlet with the AC adapter, however, the screen becomes black – perhaps with a faint, barely visible picture on the screen. When I disconnect the adapter, the screen goes back to normal.

If I start the computer with the adapter connected, the computer operates quite normal until the screen shows the Windows symbol with the rotating circle. Then, the screen picture disappears, but the start procedure seems to continue. When I disconnect the adapter, the screen picture comes back to normal.

With an external monitor everything seems to work normally.

What can I do to have the computer operate normally again?

Latitude E7270 and Pro3x dock issues

We have recently set up about 700 Latitude E7270 with docking stations and are experiencing several issues with, so far, 10%. Issues are mainly repeating letters, mouse hangs, screen flashes (connected to Dell U2715H thorugh the docking station) and the wifi is quite erratic.

We have tried every combination of usb connection, mouse/keyboard to dock usb3, usb 2, mouse keyboard to USB hub in monitor, and the issues persist. We have tried connecting to network through ethernet to no avail, updated bios/firmware, updated drivers, changing screen refresh rate from 59 to 60hz, and still issues persist.


The only surefire workaround has been to disconnect the dock and connect mouse, keyboard and monitor directly to the laptops.

Brand New Dell Inspiron Laptop Does Not Power On

I just wanted to make sure that I need to send this computer back. Took out of the box...plugged in the ac adaptor and allowed it to charge for a few hours. Lights on the adaptor and the charging indicator at the front of the laptop lit up so it appeared to be charging. I attempted to turn on and nothing happened. I removed the battery and completed a 30 second reset that I found online but still nothing. I've made sure everything is plugged in correctly as well. This morning I plugged it in to give it one last shot and now the charging indicator on the laptop does not light up. Any ideas? Lost cause? I can't stand sending things back and now I'm leery of even having it replaced. Might have to get a refund and go with another company.

XPS 9350 USB-C Issue

Hello, I have an XPS 9350 and the WD15 USB-C dock that I use for my monitor, speakers and mouse/keyboard combo. I noticed since the Windows 10 anniversary update the mouse/keyboard combo disconnect randomly and I would have to power down the laptop or dock to get it back up and working again or just plug the USB controller in to the laptop itself. 

I spoke to Dell Support who updated all my drivers several time. I even tried doing a clean install of Windows 10 but the reset feature would not let me. (A clean install helped my other computers with other issues). Dell know wants me to send in the laptop to switch out the MOBO but I would rather not do that since this is my work laptop. 

I read that this issue is due to the Wifi power consumption. So I turned off Wifi in settings but the issue still remains, I believe. Would this help that issue or would I really need to adjust the wifi power consumption to 50 or 75% in order to troubleshoot? 

I also just updated to the most recent BIOS which was released two days ago, which I haven't had the chance to test with yet and one other driver which I have tried installing 3 times but each time it says it is installed, I restart and check it and the driver detector on the dell website says I need to install it again. It is the Chipset Intel Serial IO Driver which was released back in April.

Does anyone have any suggestions that I could try that could resolve it without sending it into Dell?

Thank you

EDIT: I updated the Chipset driver through Device Manager and the Wifi power output is and was already set to 75%. 

Is there anything else I can try to get this to work? I am going to be testing out the updates I did today sometime tonight or tomorrow afternoon
