Is there a forum for more general questions?

Networking, Internet, & Bluetooth

But your post here is on the busiest board. Most Consumer users do not use an air gapped system. 

I'm sorry, I don't understand you.  Are you saying that the Inspiron Laptop board is the busiest?  I can't imagine that's the case, is it?

The Inspiron Laptops is by far the busiest platform board.

I'm surprised.  But still no luck with an answer?

Well, my question is not specific to Inspiron.  Is there anywhere else I can ask?

And, by the way, is there any general forum for questions or complaints?

I've tried that, with no luck. Where would you suggest?

I find this actually not particularly user-friendly.

Can I ask if you are a Dell staffer?

Yes. Been at Dell since 1997. Been a Dell Forum moderator since 2000.

As I tried to show you above, your question about internet connectivity with an Inspiron Laptop fits either on the Inspiron board or the Networking, Internet, & Bluetooth board.
