Hi,
you can do a quick troubleshooting on the laptop.
1. used another network cable and check that no pins are broken on the laptop.
2. go to device manager and remove the network adapter and reinstall it.

if this don't work. if you have a wireless router, you can connect to the internet over the wireless network adapter on the laptop.

good luck!!

What is the best SD card to use in the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series laptop?

there is no best. unless you stated.
what it is to be used for.(application, job, what?)
1: works (sure they do) but some huge ones do not work on really old PC or camera's.
2: or speed.
3: sizes, no job stated (usage) so no guess.

what you need we have no idea at all.
if saving video files speed matters?
if saving say only email, then small slow works ok.

your usage or applications, matter what you need.
they sell these at walmart, just buy one and be happy.

buyone $5, if not work take it back get another until happly.

No Screen Attached to Dell Inspiron 1525 Laptop

There are 3 auxilary video connections on that computer. You can use HDMI, S-video and 15 pin video connections. Your best bet is with the 15 pin connection. When you connect to that you may have to use the F5 key to change modes and make it come on.

I have a wireless modem installed in my Dell Inspiron 1545 and it stopped working two months ago. Is this because the connection with whomever I was getting it from has gotten off the internet? Or is it...

If the modem will still scan and look for available connections there is probably nothing wrong with it. It sounds like whoever you were stealing internet access from got smart and encrypted their signal.

Please rate this solution if it has helped you.
Thanks, Gary
