Wifi and Ethernet Port Stopped Working. Both at the same time/

by Gnaneshwar
(India)

My laptop Dell Inspiron 15r 5537

Suddenly stopped working both the ethernet port and my inbuilt wifi..


I thought it was my driver problem and i installed various types of drivers. even i installed linux OS to figure out the problem. and finally its a hardware problem..



So please tell me how to fix this onboard problem/


I have some knowledge over soldering too..


Please don't suggest me to buy a new motherboard coz it costs me about $300-$400 as it is powered with i7 processor.
