Window 10 wifi issue media disconnected

I have a Dell Laptop Vostro 3555 with a Dell wireless 1701 802.11b/g/n network adapter made by Broadcom. The Device status: this device is working properly. This was a window 7 moved to a window 10. And I am not getting any X's of yellow signs in device manager.

Issue: The WiFi will not turn on. Will not show any access points to connect to.

What I have tried in order to fix the issue:

• 1. Download new driver from dell
     
  2. [Function key] + F2
     
  3. can not do ipconfig /release ../renew because it says Media disconnected
     
  4. Wireless properties > Power Management > UNCHECK allow computer to turn off device to save power
     
  5. Tried kb3084164 issue https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3084164
     

It might just me a bad card? What other steps can I perform to solve the issue before opening up the laptop.

• If you have an identical laptop try comparing the wifi and security settings of the one that does not disconnect with the one that does. If you find any differences change the settings of the one that does not work to the one that does.

• If you do not have an identical laptop see this post and the three replies for possible solutions: Wifi disconnects every 5 minutes.

@Samuria : If you have any suggestions please reply.

 

Issue in accessing home wifi network through dell laptop

Hi,

Whenever I connect my Dell Laptop (Latitude 5400, Windows 10 Pro) to my home WiFi network, the Wifi network automatically shuts down. Sometimes I am able to connect my laptop to the WiFi network, it will stay connected for few minutes before it again disconnects.
Once the wifi disconnects automatically from my laptop, the other devices (mobile, other laptops etc.) are also not able to access WiFi. Restarting the router doesn't help as unless I shut down my laptop and again restart the router.

Do let me know if I should share more details to help you resolve my problem.

Thanks
