For a quick broad fix for dell internet connections I use a USB wireless adapter. Cisco linksys adapter is recognised by many Linux distros as well as Windows. I also have a Realtek adapter on one of my laptops running Ultimate Edition Linux.

Hope this helps and saves some time for you.

I believe the 1510 is a Broadcom card. You can get these drivers either by opening

jockey-gtk

or by running

sudo apt-get install bcmwl-*  && sudo modprobe wl

What you need to know is which chip set is used for WiFi. Run the following and you set what chip set is used.
