Kimsan; 2, ways you can update your wireless software drivers, 1, go to device manager, now look for, network drivers, right arrow to open, you then can arrow to the wireless driver, press applications key, enter on update, you can enter on, search automatically for update driver software button, or, 2, you can go to the dell web site, put in your dell service tag, now hit continue, and now look for the dell wireless drivers.

I have the code needed. I can't seem to find the driver for it on the dell site. I will look some more after I fire off this email. You provided steps earlier about windows q, mouse settings and device settings, I do not see device settings. I do know that the Synaptic drivers are used but I can't seem to find it on the dell site. I do know that particular software was removed when I upgraded as it stated it wasn't compatible with windows 8. Please refresh my memory on how to update the wireless card? Just to make sure I did it right. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Whitehead Sent: Sunday, December 23, 2012 1:18 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] updating router fermware question Kimsan have you tried to update your wireless card drivers? secondly, I believe dell uses the synaptics drivers for the touchpad, do you actually know which software is used? you can disable the touchpad through the synaptics interface, or, you could reinstall the drivers, then it will show in the system tray. try; 1, windows+q=search, 2, type in change mouse settings, you may hear, no apps, match your search. 3, down arrow until you hear; settings, and then a number of results, press enter. example:settings 4 results, now you should see, change mouse settings, press enter. you will land into the mouse properties, now ctrl+tab=buttons tab, right arrow until you hear; device settings tab, now tab you should find a disable button. also, you may want to find out, which third party program controls the mousepad, synaptics, Alcs, you may want to go to the dell web site and download the app. install, then you will find it in the system tray. also, you could check to see if you can't find it, in the, notification area. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kimsan Sent: Sunday, December 23, 2012 2:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] updating router fermware question Hello Folks, Indeed it was a painless procedure. I went to the site that I was given, saw that it said there was a firmware update, clicked the clickable link and waited a few. Again, this is the first time I had to do this which is why I asked but the main reason why I have been all over this is because of the recent developments with my dell latitude and upgrading to windows 8 pro. I updated to windows eight pro, the day it came out, everything is working accept for a couple of things and I am trying to figure out how to resolve the issues. The first issue is I keep dropping internet connection every 10-to-15-minutes only using this dell machine but the other three systems on my network here at home never loses internet. The second issue is the touchpad, I used to be able to press the fn key along with function key five and it would mute and unmute the touchpad but this no longer works. Lol, I should've just stayed at windows 7. I have no idea what is going on here. I'm not saying windows 8 is bad nor anything like that btw. If I knew I was going to have this many issues, why the bother is what I am saying. Dell tells me I needed to contact netgear, others state try upgrading the firmware, which I did and I am still losing connection after a while. Anyways, that's my issue in a nutshell, thanks to all for answering my curious question about the accessibility for updating firmware for a router. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Ferrin Sent: Sunday, December 23, 2012 5:07 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] updating router fermware question I've done it in the past and nobody was injured in the process. It's not that bad on a Linksys so I doubt it would be any problem on another brand.
