Well, you can't download the network drivers to flash drive and performs multiple installations on verious computers. Dell used to scan your system to find the correct version of networks drivers and which works best in your case.

Different PC have different sets of requirements and you always need to perform this online step to find any specific set of network drivers for that particular computer system.

If you still not found the drivers you're looking for, consider visiting the download center at Dell and follow steps.

Alternatively, you can take support from Dell Pros and ask them to sort this out for you.
