Troubleshooting

Device fails to power on

Verify that the power cable is securely connected to both the DC-in jack and the wall outlet; test with a different known-working outlet.

Wireless network is dropping or slow

Ensure the antennas are not blocked by metal objects and verify that your router supports Wi-Fi 6E; update the Intel Wi-Fi drivers via the Dell support website.

Slow system performance

Check Task Manager to identify memory-intensive apps and consider upgrading the RAM, as 8 GB can become a bottleneck during heavy multitasking.
