    I just reformatted my m11xR2, and have all the drivers installed again... except for my wireless card and nic. I can't find the drivers on the dell site.

    Alienware M11x a/b/g/n 2x2 MIMO Wireless
    Integrated 10/100 Network Interface Card

    I can hardwire and connect to the internet, so i'm not super worried about the nic drivers, but i'd like to be wireless again...

    can anyone point me in the correct direction to find the drivers?

    the R2. I also found those, but they won't install due to not recognizing a correct device. none of them seemed to be for the card i have.

    Lyria, go into Device Manager or Network and view the wireless adapter's properties. Find the Device ID and post back.
