New Dell Latitude E5500, Win7, Wifi shows good signal strength but is slow, hard to connect, and looses connection often with built in antenna.
I use TP-Link 620G wireless adapter connected with USB cord to my PC (XP) with no problems , so I loaded drivers from it on laptop and connected USB cord to laptop without moving antenna , no change.
I assume it's connecting thru the adapter since it looses connection when unplug USB from it.
Dell's only suggestion was move closer to the router, yeah, sure.
Any way to improve wifi service on this???
