Guide to properly solve M17x wireless connection problems
Ethernet LAN controller driver >> Download| Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller driver for Win 7(x64)| 15.83MB WLAN + Bluetooth driver.
Since many new Alienware M17x All Powerful users, especially those using Windows 7 as their operating system are experiencing various problems with their wireless connection and are posting threads asking how to fix them over and over again, I've decided to write this guide to show them how to properly solve these common issues. The solutions in this guide have been created and designed for Windows 7 64 bit, but they may also work in Windows Vista, although these problems have been experienced by Windows 7 users in the past.
I. Can't connect to wireless Network and or see the Wireless Adapter when the Ethernet cable is unplugged
If you sometimes or always can't connect to the wireless network, can't connect to the wireless network when the Ethernet cable is unplugged, can't connect to a wireless network unless you reboot once to get it working and other bizarre problems with being unable to connect to a wireless network, continue with section I.a.. Otherwise, continue with section II..
I.a. Disable Device sleep on disconnect
Newer Nvidia Ethernet drivers have a feature called Device sleep on disconnect. This is the culprit. Normally, it should only put the Ethernet adapter to sleep when the cable is disconnected, but it's buggy and thus kills the wireless connection as well.
Follow these steps to disable this feature on your Nvidia Ethernet Adapter:
1. Open the Windows Device Manager by hitting Win+Pause, then click on Device Manager on the left side.
2. Double-click on Network adapters.

4. Click on the Advanced tab.
5. Select Device sleep on disconnect.
6. Set the Value to Disabled.
7. Click OK and wireless should work again (might require a reboot afterwards, but probably not).
I.b. Install different (older) drivers that don't have the Device Sleep on disconnect feature.
In case the above doesn't work or you just aren't comfortable with these drivers, follow the instructions below (if step I.a. has been successful, you won't need to follow these steps):
1. Click on the Windows Start Button in the Task bar.
2. Click on Control Panel.
3. Click on Uninstall a Program.
4. In the list, double-click Nvidia Drivers.
5. Mark Remove only the following.
6. In the box below, check only the Nvidia Network driver.
7. Click on Remove and follow the uninstaller instructions.
8. Reboot the system if prompted to.
9. Download a different (older) Nvidia driver.
10. Install the older driver.
11. When asked which drivers you wish to install, choose only the Network driver.
12. Follow the installer instructions and reboot your system if prompted to.
II. Low or fluctuating Wireless connection speeds
If you have problems with low wireless connection speeds (such as speeds dropping over time, speeds being far lower than they should be and other odd things) or wireless connection speeds fluctuating wildly for no apparent reason, install the Dell Wireless 1510 drivers version 5.60.18.8 instead of the standard Broadcom drivers. Any older drivers will usually cause sub-par connection speed, even the ones that Dell offers on their M17x driver page (5.30.21.0). Note, however, that you'll have to install the driver manually via device manager as the driver has only been released for a different laptop and isn't officially available for the M17x yet - therefore the setup program will not work.
Here is a step-by step on how to manually install the driver:
1.Download the Dell Wireless drivers version 5.60.18.8.
2. Extract the R242438.exe file using an extraction utility like WinRAR or simply execute it and abort the installer.

10. Click on the Have Disk Button.
11. Click on Browse.
12. Select the folder you have extracted the drivers you just downloaded in step 1. into.
13. Select the sub-folder DRIVER_US (if you are in the US), DRIVER_JP (if you are in Japan) or DRIVER_ROW (if you are in the rest of the world), depending on the region you are in.
14. Click on the Open button.
15. Click OK.
16. Select the driver that says Dell Wireless 1510 Wireless-N WLAN Mini-Card from the list (you may have to have to scroll down to see it - it shows up as second to last in the list for me).
17. Click on the Next button.
18. You will get a warning that the driver you are about to install may not be compatible with your hardware. Ignore the warning and proceed with the driver installation.
19. Reboot your system if prompted to do so.
20. Your new driver should now be installed properly and your wireless connection speed in order.
Hopefully this guide will help you solve your wireless connection problems and allow you to enjoy full wireless connection speeds on your Alienware M17x laptop.
