Why no network connection for Sony laptop?

Still can't get a network connection for my new-old laptop. Yes, I have tried all of the normal stuff, it is more complicated. Dhcp something is needed? I will never buy ebay again. This guy had high ratings from over a thousand people and he still ran with my money. So, do I bury the laptop? Sure can't get my money back.

    You say you have tried all of the normal stuff? That includes trying your laptop on various public wifi hotspots.

    Well, if that didn't work I would say that you just need to do a reinstall of the operating system on your computer (Windows 7, Windows 8?). Basically known as a clean install.

    But if you are not down for that, download a driver so that you can reinstall it to maybe fix the problem.

    On the bottom of your laptop there is [should be] a sticker that has the serial number, part number, and make of your laptop. Simply enter your serial number into the dell support website and then find the wifi driver.
