New Dell XPS 13 - Wi-Fi slow to connect after hibernation

Hi, I got the 2017 Dell XPS 13. Overall I love it, but one problem I'm having is that if I let it go into hibernation mode when I start it back up it refuses to connect to Wi-Fi properly. I usually turn the Wi-Fi off and on again, and then have to wait until it realises it's connected. I usually have a tab open with google loading, just so I know as soon as it's connected again. This takes about a minute or so...

This seems to be on any network. The icon suggests it's connected (i.e. it's not still saying "connecting")...

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Because it only happens waking from hibernate, most likely an operating system issue over a hardware issue. What specific XPS 13 model number? What specific WiFi card? Have you searched for a newer WiFi driver?
