So i own a Dell Inspiron 7568 and the wifi on it is strange, i never disconnect from the internet but its very hard to get a webpage to load, when ever i go to a new website i can never load it, but if i load it a couple times and wait then it will connect to the website but if i reload the site it might not load again. I can verify that i have fully functioning internet on things like Steam Or Battle.net Games. Ai did some testing like reinstalling the wifi drivers, using windows to detect any problems and i also downloaded some large files and i found that i never disconnected from the internet once meaning i don't have intermittent internet connectivity.
I read around on the internet and read things like disabling my firewall and turning off settings like going to internet options and disabling auto detect under Connections > Lan Settings and it actually helped a bit and my computer works a little better on the internet
The last part of my testing was going and buying a mini usb wifi adapter and using that ensuring that i wasn't using on-board wifi and the problem still remained, after all that testing i have really been left stumped as to why my laptop does not want to work on any for of web browser, any suggestions?

Oh and to be precise it says server not found usually when it doesn't load a page, and i have 300 Mb/s Internet
 
Solution
so go to dell and load the driver for it from them since you wiped the drive you may have lost the recovery partition they made on it .

I have been using chrome, firefox and edge just to see if any of them work, everything is up to date because i wiped the laptop reinstalled windows and got all new drivers from dells site.

Alright so i was confident that i had the chipset drivers installed but i guess i didn't, but after toying around with the browser for about an hour now i can confirm that the problem is still happening, it tents to say this websites DNS server cant be found but if i refresh it a couple of times it finds it.
I also know that the laptop initially had the drivers the before i wiped the laptop the first time and it was still happening then.
