Dell wireless 1390 WLAN Mini Card cannot connect to a wireless network

The Dell wireless 1390 WLAN Mini Card wireless card(Chipset
BCM4311/BCM2050) is in a Dell Inspiron E1505(running Win XP with Service
Pack 3).

The Dell Wireless WLAN card utility has a diagnostics option to check
the card. I ran that and the hardware(wireless mini card) was
found to be OK. Updated the drivers which did not help so removed and
reinstalled the drivers, but that too did not help. I tried using the
Windows wireless configuration utility(and disabled the Dell Wireless
WLAN card utility), started the Wireless service, but
that did not help.

Then, tried the Dell Wireless WLAN card utility(after disabling the
Windows wireless utility), but that was futile too. It cannot detect any
wireless network
at all.

Followed suggestions of
http://en.community.dell.com/support.../18520047.aspx
but that did not fix the issue.

Checked each property at
http://support.dell.com/support/edoc...ops.htm#toc_65

There are no issues with acccess point. Next to the Dell Inspiron E1505
is a Dell latitude(having an Intel wireless card) which can connect
to the wireless network.

Also, when the computer boots there is a message "Notification dll
has not been registered program will not work correctly"

Followed the suggestions at
http://help.wugnet.com/windows/wirel...ict628131.html

Opened a command prompt and typed

regsvr32 atl.dll click [OK]
regsvr32 wltrynt.dll [OK]
ipconfig /flushdns [OK]
ipconfig /renew [OK]
netsh winsock reset [OK]

Rebooted the machine, but still there is a message "Notification dll
has not been registered program will not work correctly"

What else can I try?

a shotgun. i spent months fighting with a dell lattitude laptop with
a broadcom wifi chipset. dell sucks. buy a cheap usb wifi dongle and
disable the built-in card in the BIOS. really...this will save you
time and money (if you value your time)

Maybe the little aerial wire has come off? If that is the same model (with a
different name) as my Dell Inspiron 6400, then its under the cover above the
keyboard - just prise that off and the little white wire is the antenna near
the right side of the unit.

Thanks, wire of antenna was disconnected. Once that was hooked up, the
machine connected fine.

Strange part is Dell wireless utility could not detect that.

Well, the wire is just an extension of the actual wireless receiver, so I
guess it wouldn't know that the receiver isn't 'long' enough!
