Selenium Generated Driver

Why not just record in the IDE and play the recording with WebDriver

The IDE Does Not Know What to Wait For

Suppose Bob is performing manual checks and recording his interaction with Selenium IDE. He performs an operation that takes a while to update the GUI, and when the operation has finished, he clicks a button. Bob knows that the GUI has finished updating because a spinner that was show when the operation started is removed when the operation is finished. How is the IDE going to capture the fact that the operation must have finished before clicking on the button. Note here this is not a case where the button is disabled until the operation is finished. This is not a hypothetical: when you test dynamic tables like those managed by DataTables, the user can change anything at any time.

This can be one of the reasons a sequence of commands created with the IDE would fail with WebDriver. It just does not know what to wait for.

It is possible to add waits manually in the IDE but if you are doing this, then you are no longer just record ing all of our test cases. And what you are doing becomes more like writing code for WebDriver.

Not long ago there was a Selenium question in which the user wanted to get Selenium to click on the last record in a table that had multiple pages of records. So the question was, how can I page through the table, all the way down to the last page and then click the last record. Someone maybe me, maybe someone else pointed out that if the table is sortable, it could be sorted in reverse order and then the Selenium code could click on the first record. That s 2 operations rather than p 1 operations: clicking p times, where p is the number of pages, plus 1 time for the click on the record.

When we write code for WebDriver, we have the opportunity to write the tests to avoid taking the scenic route to get the results we want. See the next point for the technical details as to why it matters.

Selenium Operations Can Be Costly

If the software that runs your Selenium commands is local, and your browser is local, you may not feel that Selenium operations can be costly but if you run your commands on one machine and the browser is remote, then you will notice a significant slowdown. For instance, if you spawn your browser in a Sauce Labs VM or in a BrowserStack VM to run a test suite, network delays are going to add significant time to how long it takes the suite to complete. For a complete application test suite, this can mean many minutes more.

The IDE produces a sequence of commands that each require a round-trip between the Selenium script and the browser. Each round-trip adds up. Suppose I want to check that two elements contain the same text. I m not going to use Selenese because I don t usually use the IDE but using WebDriver code in Python, the script could be:

a driver.find_element_by_id a

b driver.find_element_by_id b

This code requires 4 round-trips: one round-trip per find_element and one per access to the text field. The same test could be written:

a_text, b_text driver.execute_script

var a document.getElementById a ;

var b document.getElementById b ;

return a.textcontent, b.textContent ;

This needs only one round-trip. When you use the IDE to record actions, the sequence of commands is like the earlier snippet: lots of round-trips. When you write your code for WebDriver, you have the opportunity to optimize as you code.

This does not mean that the Selenium IDE has no use but I would never ever think of just recording tests with it and then playing those recordings with WebDriver.

Selenium WebDriver — Selenium Documentation

NOTE: We re currently working on documenting these sections.

We believe the information here is accurate, however be aware we are also still working on this

chapter. Additional information will be provided as we go which should make this chapter more

The primary new feature in Selenium 2.0 is the integration of the WebDriver API.

WebDriver is designed to provide a simpler, more concise programming interface in addition to

addressing some limitations in the Selenium-RC API. Selenium-WebDriver was developed

to better support dynamic web pages where elements of a page may change without the page

itself being reloaded. WebDriver s goal is to supply a well-designed object-oriented

API that provides improved support for modern advanced web-app testing problems.

How Does WebDriver Drive the Browser Compared to Selenium-RC.

Selenium-WebDriver makes direct calls to the browser using each browser s native support for automation.

How these direct calls are made, and the features they support depends on the browser you are using.

Information on each browser driver is provided later in this chapter.

For those familiar with Selenium-RC, this is quite different from what you are used to. Selenium-RC

worked the same way for each supported browser. It injected javascript functions into the browser

when the browser was loaded and then used its javascript to drive the AUT within the browser.

WebDriver does not use this technique. Again, it drives the browser directly using the browser s

built in support for automation.

WebDriver and the Selenium-Server

You may, or may not, need the Selenium Server, depending on how you intend to use Selenium-WebDriver.

If you will be only using the WebDriver API you do not need the Selenium-Server. If your browser

and tests will all run on the same machine, and your tests only use the WebDriver API, then you

do not need to run the Selenium-Server; WebDriver will run the browser directly.

There are some reasons though to use the Selenium-Server with Selenium-WebDriver.

You are using Selenium-Grid to distribute your tests over multiple machines or virtual machines VMs.

You want to connect to a remote machine that has a particular browser version that is not on

You are not using the Java bindings i.e. Python, C, or Ruby and would like to use HtmlUnit Driver

Setting Up a Selenium-WebDriver Project

To install Selenium means to set up a project in a development so you can write a program using

Selenium. How you do this depends on your programming language and your development environment.

The easiest way to set up a Selenium 2.0 Java project is to use Maven. Maven will download the

java bindings the Selenium 2.0 java client library and all its dependencies, and will create the

project for you, using a maven pom.xml project configuration file. Once you ve done this, you

can import the maven project into your preferred IDE, IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse.

First, create a folder to contain your Selenium project files. Then, to use Maven, you need a

pom.xml file. This can be created with a text editor. We won t teach the

details of pom.xml files or for using Maven since there are already excellent references on this.

Your pom.xml file will look something like this. Create this file in the folder you created for

Be sure you specify the most current version. At the time of writing, the version listed above was

the most current, however there were frequent releases immediately after the release of Selenium 2.0.

Check the Maven download page for the current release and edit the above dependency accordingly.

Now, from a command-line, CD into the project directory and run maven as follows.

This will download Selenium and all its dependencies and will add them to the project.

Finally, import the project into your preferred development environment. For those not familiar

with this, we ve provided an appendix which shows this.

Importing a maven project into IntelliJ IDEA.

Importing a maven project into Eclipse.

As of Selenium 2.2.0, the C bindings are distributed as a set of signed dlls along with other

dependency dlls. Prior to 2.2.0, all Selenium dll s were unsigned.

To include Selenium in your project, simply download the latest

selenium-dotnet zip file from

If you are using Windows Vista or above, you should unblock the zip file before

unzipping it: Right click on the zip file, click Properties, click Unblock

Unzip the contents of the zip file, and add a reference to each of the unzipped

dlls to your project in Visual Studio or your IDE of choice.

If you are using Python for test automation then you probably are already familiar with developing

in Python. To add Selenium to your Python environment run the following command from

Pip requires pip to be installed, pip also has a dependency

Teaching Python development itself is beyond the scope of this document, however there are many

resources on Python and likely developers in your organization can help you get up to speed.

If you are using Ruby for test automation then you probably are already familiar with developing

in Ruby. To add Selenium to your Ruby environment run the following command from

gem install selenium-webdriver

Teaching Ruby development itself is beyond the scope of this document, however there are many

resources on Ruby and likely developers in your organization can help you get up to speed.

Perl bindings are provided by a third party, please refer to any of their documentation on how to

install / get started. There is one known Perl binding as of this writing.

For those who already have test suites written using Selenium 1.0, we have provided tips on how to

migrate your existing code to Selenium 2.0. Simon Stewart, the lead developer for Selenium 2.0,

has written an article on migrating from Selenium 1.0. We ve included this as an appendix.

Migrating From Selenium RC to Selenium WebDriver

Introducing the Selenium-WebDriver API by Example

WebDriver is a tool for automating web application testing, and in particular

to verify that they work as expected. It aims to provide a friendly API that s

easy to explore and understand, easier to use than the Selenium-RC 1.0 API,

which will help to make your tests easier to

read and maintain. It s not tied to any particular test framework, so it can

be used equally well in a unit testing or from a plain old main method.

This section introduces WebDriver s API and helps get you started becoming

familiar with it. Start by setting up a WebDriver project if you haven t already.

This was described in the previous section, Setting Up a Selenium-WebDriver Project.

Once your project is set up, you can see that WebDriver acts just as any normal library:

it is entirely self-contained, and you usually don t need to remember to start any

additional processes or run any installers before using it, as opposed to the proxy server

Note: additional steps are required to use ChromeDriver, Opera Driver, Android Driver

You re now ready to write some code. An easy way to get started is this

example, which searches for the term Cheese on Google and then outputs the

result page s title to the console.

package org.openqa.selenium.example;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedCondition;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public static void main String args

// Create a new instance of the Firefox driver

// Notice that the remainder of the code relies on the interface,

WebDriver driver new FirefoxDriver ;

// And now use this to visit Google

// Alternatively the same thing can be done like this

// Find the text input element by its name

WebElement element driver.findElement By.name q ;

// Enter something to search for

// Now submit the form. WebDriver will find the form for us from the element

// Check the title of the page

System.out.println Page title is: driver.getTitle ;

// Google s search is rendered dynamically with JavaScript.

// Wait for the page to load, timeout after 10 seconds

new WebDriverWait driver, 10. until new ExpectedConditionBoolean

public Boolean apply WebDriver d

return d.getTitle. toLowerCase. startsWith cheese. ;

// Should see: cheese. - Google Search

using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;

// Requires reference to WebDriver.Support.dll

using OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI;

// Create a new instance of the Firefox driver.

// Further note that other drivers InternetExplorerDriver,

// ChromeDriver, etc. will require further configuration

// before this example will work. See the wiki pages for the

IWebDriver driver new FirefoxDriver ;

//Notice navigation is slightly different than the Java version

//This is because get is a keyword in C

IWebElement query driver.FindElement By.Name q ;

WebDriverWait wait new WebDriverWait driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds 10 ;

wait.Until d return d.Title.ToLower. StartsWith cheese ; ;

// Should see: Cheese - Google Search

System.Console.WriteLine Page title is: driver.Title ;

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait available since 2.4.0

from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC available since 2.26.0

Create a new instance of the Firefox driver

the page is ajaxy so the title is originally this:

find the element that s name attribute is q the google search box

inputElement driver.find_element_by_name q

inputElement.send_keys cheese.

submit the form although google automatically searches now without submitting

we have to wait for the page to refresh, the last thing that seems to be updated is the title

WebDriverWait driver, 10. until EC.title_contains cheese.

You should see cheese. - Google Search

driver Selenium::WebDriver.for :firefox

element driver.find_element :name q

puts Page title is driver.title

wait Selenium::WebDriver::Wait.new :timeout 10

wait.until driver.title.downcase.start_with. cheese.

puts Page title is driver.title

var driver new webdriver.Builder. build ;

var element driver.findElement webdriver.By.name q ;

driver.getTitle. then function title

console.log Page title is: title ;

return driver.getTitle. then function title

return title.toLowerCase. lastIndexOf cheese., 0 0;

Create a new instance of the driver

my driver Selenium::Remote::Driver- new;

Find the element that s name attribute is q google search box

my inputElement driver- find_element q, name ;

inputElement- send_keys cheese. ;

submit the form although google automatically searches now without submitting

Set the timeout for searching for elements to 10 seconds 0 by default

driver- set_implicit_wait_timeout 10000 ;

then use XPath to search for a page title containing cheese.

driver- find_element /html/head/title contains translate. , ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ, abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz, cheese. ;

In upcoming sections, you will learn more about how to use WebDriver for things

such as navigating forward and backward in your browser s history, and how to

test web sites that use frames and windows. We also provide a more

thorough discussions and examples.

Selenium-WebDriver API Commands and Operations

The first thing you re likely to want to do with WebDriver is navigate to a page.

The normal way to do this is by calling get :

Dependent on several factors, including the OS/Browser combination,

WebDriver may or may not wait for the page to load. In some circumstances,

WebDriver may return control before the page has finished, or even started, loading.

To ensure robustness, you need to wait for the element s to exist in the page using

Locating UI Elements WebElements

Locating elements in WebDriver can be done on the WebDriver instance itself or on a WebElement.

Each of the language bindings expose a Find Element and Find Elements method. The first returns

a WebElement object otherwise it throws an exception. The latter returns a list of WebElements, it can

return an empty list if no DOM elements match the query.

The Find methods take a locator or query object called By. By strategies are listed below.

This is the most efficient and preferred way to locate an element. Common pitfalls that UI developers

make is having non-unique id s on a page or auto-generating the id, both should be avoided. A class

on an html element is more appropriate than an auto-generated id.

Example of how to find an element that looks like this:

WebElement element driver.findElement By.id coolestWidgetEvah ;

IWebElement element driver.FindElement By.Id coolestWidgetEvah ;

element driver.find_element :id, coolestWidgetEvah

element driver.find_element_by_id coolestWidgetEvah

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

element driver.find_element by By.ID, value coolestWidgetEvah

element driver- find_element coolestWidgetEvah, id

Class in this case refers to the attribute on the DOM element. Often in practical use there are

many DOM elements with the same class name, thus finding multiple elements becomes the more practical

option over finding the first element.

class cheese Cheddar class cheese Gouda

ListWebElement cheeses driver.findElements By.className cheese ;

IListIWebElement cheeses driver.FindElements By.ClassName cheese ;

cheeses driver.find_elements :class_name, cheese

cheeses driver.find_elements :class, cheese

cheeses driver.find_elements_by_class_name cheese

cheeses driver.find_elements By.CLASS_NAME, cheese

cheeses driver- find_elements cheese, class ;

The DOM Tag Name of the element.

WebElement frame driver.findElement By.tagName iframe ;

IWebElement frame driver.FindElement By.TagName iframe ;

frame driver.find_element :tag_name, iframe

frame driver.find_element_by_tag_name iframe

frame driver.find_element By.TAG_NAME, iframe

frame driver- find_element iframe, tag_name ;

Find the input element with matching name attribute.

WebElement cheese driver.findElement By.name cheese ;

IWebElement cheese driver.FindElement By.Name cheese ;

cheese driver.find_element :name, cheese

cheese driver.find_element_by_name cheese

cheese driver.find_element By.NAME, cheese

cheese driver- find_element cheese, name ;

Find the link element with matching visible text.

WebElement cheese driver.findElement By.linkText cheese ;

IWebElement cheese driver.FindElement By.LinkText cheese ;

cheese driver.find_element :link_text, cheese

cheese driver.find_element :link, cheese

cheese driver.find_element_by_link_text cheese

cheese driver.find_element By.LINK_TEXT, cheese

cheese driver- find_element cheese, link_text ;

Find the link element with partial matching visible text.

WebElement cheese driver.findElement By.partialLinkText cheese ;

IWebElement cheese driver.FindElement By.PartialLinkText cheese ;

cheese driver.find_element :partial_link_text, cheese

cheese driver.find_element_by_partial_link_text cheese

cheese driver.find_element By.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, cheese

cheese driver- find_element cheese, partial_link_text ;

Like the name implies it is a locator strategy by css. Native browser support

is used by default, so please refer to w3c css selectors for a list of generally available css selectors. If a browser does not have

native support for css queries, then Sizzle is used. IE 6,7 and FF3.0

currently use Sizzle as the css query engine.

Beware that not all browsers were created equal, some css that might work in one version may not work

Example of to find the cheese below:

id food class dairy milk class dairy aged cheese

WebElement cheese driver.findElement By.cssSelector food span.dairy.aged ;

IWebElement cheese driver.FindElement By.CssSelector food span.dairy.aged ;

cheese driver.find_element :css, food span.dairy.aged

cheese driver.find_element_by_css_selector food span.dairy.aged

cheese driver.find_element By.CSS_SELECTOR, food span.dairy.aged

cheese driver- find_element food span.dairy.aged, css ;

At a high level, WebDriver uses a browser s native XPath capabilities wherever

possible. On those browsers that don t have native XPath support, we have

provided our own implementation. This can lead to some unexpected behaviour

unless you are aware of the differences in the various xpath engines.

This is a little abstract, so for the following piece of HTML:

ListWebElement inputs driver.findElements By.xpath //input ;

IListIWebElement inputs driver.FindElements By.XPath //input ;

inputs driver.find_elements :xpath, //input

inputs driver.find_elements_by_xpath //input

inputs driver.find_elements By.XPATH, //input

inputs driver- find_elements //input

The following number of matches will be found

Sometimes HTML elements do not need attributes to be explicitly declared

because they will default to known values. For example, the input tag does

not require the type attribute because it defaults to text. The rule of

thumb when using xpath in WebDriver is that you should not expect to be able

to match against these implicit attributes.

You can execute arbitrary javascript to find an element and as long as you return a DOM Element,

it will be automatically converted to a WebElement object.

Simple example on a page that has jQuery loaded:

WebElement element WebElement JavascriptExecutor driver. executeScript return . cheese 0 ;

IWebElement element IWebElement IJavaScriptExecutor driver. ExecuteScript return . cheese 0 ;

element driver.execute_script return . cheese 0

element driver- execute_script return . cheese 0 ;

Finding all the input elements to the every label on a page:

ListWebElement labels driver.findElements By.tagName label ;

ListWebElement inputs ListWebElement JavascriptExecutor driver. executeScript

var labels arguments 0, inputs ; for var i 0; i

inputs.push document.getElementById labels i. getAttribute for ; return inputs;, labels ;

IListIWebElement labels driver.FindElements By.TagName label ;

IListIWebElement inputs IListIWebElement IJavaScriptExecutor driver. ExecuteScript

labels driver.find_elements :tag_name, label

inputs.push document.getElementById labels i. getAttribute for ; return inputs;, labels

labels driver.find_elements_by_tag_name label

my labels driver- find_elements label, tag_name ;

my inputs driver- execute_script var labels arguments, inputs ; for var i 0; i, labels ;

Moving Between Windows and Frames

Some web applications have many frames or multiple windows. WebDriver supports

moving between named windows using the switchTo method:

driver.switchTo. window windowName ;

driver.switch_to.window windowName

driver- switch_to_window windowName ;

All calls to driver will now be interpreted as being directed to the

particular window. But how do you know the window s name. Take a look at the

javascript or link that opened it:

href somewhere.html target windowName Click here to open a new window

Alternatively, you can pass a window handle to the switchTo. window

method. Knowing this, it s possible to iterate over every open window like so:

for String handle : driver.getWindowHandles

driver.switchTo. window handle ;

driver.window_handles.each do handle

driver.switch_to.window handle

for handle in driver.window_handles:

windows driver- get_window_handles

driver- switch_to_window window ;

You can also switch from frame to frame or into iframes :

driver.switchTo. frame frameName ;

driver.switch_to.frame frameName

driver- switch_to_frame frameName ;

Navigation: History and Location

Earlier, we covered navigating to a page using the get command

driver.get As you ve seen, WebDriver has a

number of smaller, task-focused interfaces, and navigation is a useful task.

Because loading a page is such a fundamental requirement, the method to do this

lives on the main WebDriver interface, but it s simply a synonym to:

driver.get python doesn t have driver.navigate

To reiterate: navigate. to and get do exactly the same thing.

One s just a lot easier to type than the other.

The navigate interface also exposes the ability to move backwards and forwards in your browser s history:

Please be aware that this functionality depends entirely on the underlying

browser. It s just possible that something unexpected may happen when you call

these methods if you re used to the behaviour of one browser over another.

Before we leave these next steps, you may be interested in understanding how to

use cookies. First of all, you need to be on the domain that the cookie will be

valid for. If you are trying to preset cookies before

you start interacting with a site and your homepage is large / takes a while to load

an alternative is to find a smaller page on the site, typically the 404 page is small

// Now set the cookie. This one s valid for the entire domain

Cookie cookie new Cookie key, value ;

driver.manage. addCookie cookie ;

// And now output all the available cookies for the current URL

SetCookie allCookies driver.manage. getCookies ;

for Cookie loadedCookie : allCookies

System.out.println String.format s - s, loadedCookie.getName, loadedCookie.getValue ;

// You can delete cookies in 3 ways

driver.manage. deleteCookieNamed CookieName ;

driver.manage. deleteCookie loadedCookie ;

driver.manage. deleteAllCookies ;

Now set the cookie. Here s one for the entire domain

the cookie name here is key and its value is value

driver.add_cookie name : key, value : value, path : /

additional keys that can be passed in are:

expiry - Milliseconds since the Epoch it should expire.

And now output all the available cookies for the current URL

for cookie in driver.get_cookies :

print s - s cookie name, cookie value

You can delete cookies in 2 ways

driver.delete_cookie CookieName

driver.manage.add_cookie :name key, :value value

:path String, :secure - Boolean, :expires - Time, DateTime, or seconds since epoch

driver.manage.all_cookies.each cookie

puts cookie :name cookie :value

driver.manage.delete_cookie CookieName

driver.manage.delete_all_cookies

the cookie name here is key and its value is value

driver- add_cookie key, value, /, example.com, 0 ;

additional required inputs are path and domain

the final input secure is an optional boolean

my cookies_ref driver- get_all_cookies ; Returns reference to AoH

printf s s n, cookie_ref- name, cookie_ref- value ;

driver- delete_cookie_named key ;

This is easy with the Firefox Driver:

FirefoxProfile profile new FirefoxProfile ;

profile.addAdditionalPreference general.useragent.override, some UA string ;

WebDriver driver new FirefoxDriver profile ;

profile Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Profile.new

profile general.useragent.override some UA string

driver Selenium::WebDriver.for :firefox, :profile profile

profile webdriver.FirefoxProfile

profile.set_preference general.useragent.override, some UA string

driver webdriver.Firefox profile

use Selenium::Remote::Driver::Firefox::Profile;

my profile Selenium::Remote::Driver::Firefox::Profile- new;

profile- set_preference general.useragent.overide some UA string ;

my driver Selenium::Remote::Driver- new firefox_profile profile ;

Here s an example of using the Actions class to perform a drag and drop.

Native events are required to be enabled.

WebElement element driver.findElement By.name source ;

WebElement target driver.findElement By.name target ;

new Actions driver. dragAndDrop element, target. perform ;

element driver.find_element :name source

target driver.find_element :name target

driver.action.drag_and_drop element, target. perform

from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains

element driver.find_element_by_name source

target driver.find_element_by_name target

ActionChains driver. drag_and_drop element, target. perform

Driver Specifics and Tradeoffs

WebDriver is the name of the key interface against which tests should be

written, but there are several implementations. These include:

This is currently the fastest and most lightweight implementation of WebDriver.

As the name suggests, this is based on HtmlUnit. HtmlUnit is a java based implementation

of a WebBrowser without a GUI. For any language binding other than java the

Selenium Server is required to use this driver.

WebDriver driver new HtmlUnitDriver ;

IWebDriver driver new RemoteWebDriver new Uri

DesiredCapabilities.HtmlUnit ;

driver webdriver.Remote webdriver.DesiredCapabilities.HTMLUNIT.copy

driver Selenium::WebDriver.for :remote, :url :desired_capabilities :htmlunit

my driver Selenium::Remote::Driver- new browser_name htmlunit, remote_server_addr localhost, port 4444 ;

Fastest implementation of WebDriver

A pure Java solution and so it is platform independent.

Emulates other browsers JavaScript behaviour see below

JavaScript in the HtmlUnit Driver

None of the popular browsers uses the JavaScript engine used by HtmlUnit

Rhino. If you test JavaScript using HtmlUnit the results may differ

significantly from those browsers.

When we say JavaScript we actually mean JavaScript and the DOM. Although

the DOM is defined by the W3C each browser has its own quirks and differences

in their implementation of the DOM and in how JavaScript interacts with it.

HtmlUnit has an impressively complete implementation of the DOM and has good

support for using JavaScript, but it is no different from any other

browser: it has its own quirks and differences from both the W3C standard and

the DOM implementations of the major browsers, despite its ability to mimic

With WebDriver, we had to make a choice; do we enable HtmlUnit s JavaScript

capabilities and run the risk of teams running into problems that only manifest

themselves there, or do we leave JavaScript disabled, knowing that there are

more and more sites that rely on JavaScript. We took the conservative approach,

and by default have disabled support when we use HtmlUnit. With each release of

both WebDriver and HtmlUnit, we reassess this decision: we hope to enable

JavaScript by default on the HtmlUnit at some point.

If you can t wait, enabling JavaScript support is very easy:

HtmlUnitDriver driver new HtmlUnitDriver true ;

WebDriver driver new RemoteWebDriver new Uri

DesiredCapabilities.HtmlUnitWithJavaScript ;

caps Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Capabilities.htmlunit :javascript_enabled true

driver Selenium::WebDriver.for :remote, :url :desired_capabilities caps

driver webdriver.Remote webdriver.DesiredCapabilities.HTMLUNITWITHJS

driver new Selenium::Remote::Driver browser_name firefox, port 4444, version, platform LINUX, javascript 1, auto_close 1 ;

This will cause the HtmlUnit Driver to emulate Firefox 3.6 s JavaScript

Controls the Firefox browser using a Firefox plugin.

The Firefox Profile that is used is stripped down from what is installed on the

machine to only include the Selenium WebDriver.xpi plugin. A few settings are

also changed by default see the source to see which ones

Firefox Driver is capable of being run and is tested on Windows, Mac, Linux.

Currently on versions 3.6, 10, latest - 1, latest

Slower than the HtmlUnit Driver

Suppose that you wanted to modify the user agent string as above, but you ve

got a tricked out Firefox profile that contains dozens of useful extensions.

There are two ways to obtain this profile. Assuming that the profile has been

created using Firefox s profile manager firefox -ProfileManager :

ProfilesIni allProfiles new ProfilesIni ;

FirefoxProfile profile allProfiles.getProfile WebDriver ;

profile.setPreferences foo.bar, 23 ;

Alternatively, if the profile isn t already registered with Firefox:

File profileDir new File path/to/top/level/of/profile ;

FirefoxProfile profile new FirefoxProfile profileDir ;

profile.addAdditionalPreferences extraPrefs ;

As we develop features in the Firefox Driver, we expose the ability to use them.

For example, until we feel native events are stable on Firefox for Linux, they

are disabled by default. To enable them:

profile.setEnableNativeEvents true ;

profile.native_events_enabled True

This driver is controlled by a. dll and is thus only available on Windows OS.

Each Selenium release has its core functionality tested against versions

6, 7 and 8 on XP, and 9 on Windows7.

WebDriver driver new InternetExplorerDriver ;

IWebDriver driver new InternetExlorerDriver ;

driver Selenium::WebDriver.for :ie

my driver Selenium::Remote::Driver- new browser_name internet explorer ;

Runs in a real browser and supports JavaScript with all the quirks

Obviously the Internet Explorer Driver will only work on Windows.

Comparatively slow though still pretty snappy

XPath is not natively supported in most versions. Sizzle is injected automatically

which is significantly slower than other browsers and slower when comparing to CSS

selectors in the same browser.

CSS is not natively supported in versions 6 and 7. Sizzle is injected instead.

CSS selectors in IE 8 and 9 are native, but those browsers don t fully support CSS3

ChromeDriver is maintained / supported by the Chromium

project iteslf. WebDriver works with Chrome through the chromedriver binary found on the chromium

project s download page. You need to have both chromedriver and a version of chrome browser installed.

chromedriver needs to be placed somewhere on your system s path in order for WebDriver to automatically

discover it. The Chrome browser itself is discovered by chromedriver in the default installation path.

These both can be overridden by environment variables. Please refer to the wiki

WebDriver driver new ChromeDriver ;

IWebDriver driver new ChromeDriver ;

driver Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome

my driver Selenium::Remote::Driver- new browser_name chrome ;

Runs in a real browser and supports JavaScript

Because Chrome is a Webkit-based browser, the ChromeDriver may allow you to

verify that your site works in Safari. Note that since Chrome uses its own V8

JavaScript engine rather than Safari s Nitro engine, JavaScript execution may

See either the ios-driver or appium projects.

Alternative Back-Ends: Mixing WebDriver and RC Technologies

The Java version of WebDriver provides an implementation of the Selenium-RC API. These means that

you can use the underlying WebDriver technology using the Selenium-RC API. This is primarily

provided for backwards compatibility. It allows those who have existing test suites using the

Selenium-RC API to use WebDriver under the covers. It s provided to help ease the migration path

to Selenium-WebDriver. Also, this allows one to use both APIs, side-by-side, in the same test code.

Selenium-WebDriver is used like this:

// You may use any WebDriver implementation. Firefox is used here as an example

// A base url, used by selenium to resolve relative URLs

// Create the Selenium implementation

Selenium selenium new WebDriverBackedSelenium driver, baseUrl ;

// Perform actions with selenium

selenium.type name q, cheese ;

// Get the underlying WebDriver implementation back. This will refer to the

// same WebDriver instance as the driver variable above.

WebDriver driverInstance WebDriverBackedSelenium selenium. getWrappedDriver ;

//Finally, close the browser. Call stop on the WebDriverBackedSelenium instance

//instead of calling driver.quit. Otherwise, the JVM will continue running after

//the browser has been closed.

Allows for the WebDriver and Selenium APIs to live side-by-side

Provides a simple mechanism for a managed migration from the Selenium RC API

Does not require the standalone Selenium RC server to be run

Does not implement every method

More advanced Selenium usage using browserbot or other built-in JavaScript

methods from Selenium Core may not work

Some methods may be slower due to underlying implementation differences

Backing WebDriver with Selenium

WebDriver doesn t support as many browsers as Selenium RC does, so in order to

provide that support while still using the WebDriver API, you can make use of

Safari is supported in this way with the following code be sure to disable

DesiredCapabilities capabilities new DesiredCapabilities ;

capabilities.setBrowserName safari ;

CommandExecutor executor new SeleneseCommandExecutor new URL new URL capabilities ;

WebDriver driver new RemoteWebDriver executor, capabilities ;

There are currently some major limitations with this approach, notably that

findElements doesn t work as expected. Also, because we re using Selenium Core

for the heavy lifting of driving the browser, you are limited by the JavaScript

Running Standalone Selenium Server for use with RemoteDrivers

From Selenium s Download page download selenium-server-standalone-.jar and optionally IEDriverServer. If you plan to work with Chrome, download it from Google Code.

Unpack IEDriverServer and/or chromedriver and put them in a directory which is on the PATH / PATH - the Selenium Server should then be able to handle requests for IE / Chrome without additional modifications.

Start the server on the command line with

java -jar /selenium-server-standalone-.jar

If you want to use native events functionality, indicate this on the command line with the option

-Dwebdriver.enable.native.events 1

For other command line options, execute

java -jar /selenium-server-standalone-.jar -help

In order to function properly, the following ports should be allowed incoming TCP connections: 4444, 7054-5 or twice as many ports as the number of concurrent instances you plan to run. Under Windows, you may need to unblock the applications as well.

You can find further resources for WebDriver

Of course, don t hesitate to do an internet search on any Selenium topic, including

Selenium-WebDriver s drivers. There are quite a few blogs on Selenium along with numerous posts

on various user forums. Additionally the Selenium User s Group is a great resource.

This chapter has simply been a high level walkthrough of WebDriver and some of its key

capabilities. Once getting familiar with the Selenium-WebDriver API you will then want to learn

how to build test suites for maintainability, extensibility, and reduced fragility when features of

the AUT frequently change. The approach most Selenium experts are now recommending is to design

your test code using the Page Object Design Pattern along with possibly a Page Factory.

Selenium-WebDriver provides support for this by supplying a PageFactory class in Java and C.

This is presented, along with other advanced topics, in the

next chapter. Also, for high-level description of this

technique, you may want to look at the

Test Design Considerations chapter. Both of these

chapters present techniques for writing more maintainable tests by making your test code more

VueScan works with the Canon 3200F on Windows and Mac OS X.

This scanner has an infrared lamp for scanning film. VueScan s Filter Infrared clean option can be used to remove dust spots from film scans. This is similar to and we think better than the ICE and FARE algorithms.

It scans with visible light in the first pass and with infrared light in the second pass.

Infrared cleaning works well with all types of color negative and color slide film, including Kodachrome. However, silver-based black/white film doesn t work with infrared cleaning because the silver particles look the same in visible light and infrared light.

This chapter provides a general introduction to some more advanced features of PuTTY. For extreme detail and reference purposes, chapter 4 is likely to contain more information.

3.1 During your session

A lot of PuTTY s complexity and features are in the configuration panel. Once you have worked your way through that and started a session, things should be reasonably simple after that. Nevertheless, there are a few more useful features available.

3.1.1 Copying and pasting text

Often in a PuTTY session you will find text on your terminal screen which you want to type in again. Like most other terminal emulators, PuTTY allows you to copy and paste the text rather than having to type it again. Also, copy and paste uses the Windows clipboard, so that you can paste for example URLs into a web browser, or paste from a word processor or spreadsheet into your terminal session.

PuTTY s copy and paste works entirely with the mouse. In order to copy text to the clipboard, you just click the left mouse button in the terminal window, and drag to select text. When you let go of the button, the text is automatically copied to the clipboard. You do not need to press Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Ins; in fact, if you do press Ctrl-C, PuTTY will send a Ctrl-C character down your session to the server where it will probably cause a process to be interrupted.

Pasting is done using the right button or the middle mouse button, if you have a three-button mouse and have set it up; see section 4.11.2. Pressing Shift-Ins, or selecting Paste from the Ctrl right-click context menu, have the same effect. When you click the right mouse button, PuTTY will read whatever is in the Windows clipboard and paste it into your session, exactly as if it had been typed at the keyboard. Therefore, be careful of pasting formatted text into an editor that does automatic indenting; you may find that the spaces pasted from the clipboard plus the spaces added by the editor add up to too many spaces and ruin the formatting. There is nothing PuTTY can do about this.

If you double-click the left mouse button, PuTTY will select a whole word. If you double-click, hold down the second click, and drag the mouse, PuTTY will select a sequence of whole words. You can adjust precisely what PuTTY considers to be part of a word; see section 4.11.5. If you triple-click, or triple-click and drag, then PuTTY will select a whole line or sequence of lines.

If you want to select a rectangular region instead of selecting to the end of each line, you can do this by holding down Alt when you make your selection. You can also configure rectangular selection to be the default, and then holding down Alt gives the normal behaviour instead. See section 4.11.4 for details.

If you have a middle mouse button, then you can use it to adjust an existing selection if you selected something slightly wrong. If you have configured the middle mouse button to paste, then the right mouse button does this instead. Click the button on the screen, and you can pick up the nearest end of the selection and drag it to somewhere else.

It s possible for the server to ask to handle mouse clicks in the PuTTY window itself. If this happens, the mouse pointer will turn into an arrow, and using the mouse to copy and paste will only work if you hold down Shift. See section 4.6.2 and section 4.11.3 for details of this feature and how to configure it.

3.1.2 Scrolling the screen back

PuTTY keeps track of text that has scrolled up off the top of the terminal. So if something appears on the screen that you want to read, but it scrolls too fast and it s gone by the time you try to look for it, you can use the scrollbar on the right side of the window to look back up the session history and find it again.

As well as using the scrollbar, you can also page the scrollback up and down by pressing Shift-PgUp and Shift-PgDn. You can scroll a line at a time using Ctrl-PgUp and Ctrl-PgDn. These are still available if you configure the scrollbar to be invisible.

By default the last 200 lines scrolled off the top are preserved for you to look at. You can increase or decrease this value using the configuration box; see section 4.7.3.

3.1.3 The System menu

If you click the left mouse button on the icon in the top left corner of PuTTY s terminal window, or click the right mouse button on the title bar, you will see the standard Windows system menu containing items like Minimise, Move, Size and Close.

PuTTY s system menu contains extra program features in addition to the Windows standard options. These extra menu commands are described below.

These options are also available in a context menu brought up by holding Ctrl and clicking with the right mouse button anywhere in the PuTTY window.

3.1.3.1 The PuTTY Event Log

If you choose Event Log from the system menu, a small window will pop up in which PuTTY logs significant events during the connection. Most of the events in the log will probably take place during session startup, but a few can occur at any point in the session, and one or two occur right at the end.

You can use the mouse to select one or more lines of the Event Log, and hit the Copy button to copy them to the clipboard. If you are reporting a bug, it s often useful to paste the contents of the Event Log into your bug report.

3.1.3.2 Special commands

Depending on the protocol used for the current session, there may be a submenu of special commands. These are protocol-specific tokens, such as a break signal, that can be sent down a connection in addition to normal data. Their precise effect is usually up to the server. Currently only Telnet, SSH, and serial connections have special commands.

The break signal can also be invoked from the keyboard with Ctrl-Break.

The following special commands are available in Telnet:

Are You There

Break

Synch

Erase Character

PuTTY can also be configured to send this when the Backspace key is pressed; see section 4.16.3.

Erase Line

Go Ahead

No Operation

Should have no effect.

Abort Process

Abort Output

Interrupt Process

PuTTY can also be configured to send this when Ctrl-C is typed; see section 4.16.3.

Suspend Process

PuTTY can also be configured to send this when Ctrl-Z is typed; see section 4.16.3.

End Of Record

End Of File

In an SSH connection, the following special commands are available:

IGNORE message

Repeat key exchange

Only available in SSH-2. Forces a repeat key exchange immediately and resets associated timers and counters. For more information about repeat key exchanges, see section 4.19.2.

Only available in SSH-2, and only during a session. Optional extension; may not be supported by server. PuTTY requests the server s default break length.

Signals SIGINT, SIGTERM etc

Only available in SSH-2, and only during a session. Sends various POSIX signals. Not honoured by all servers.

With a serial connection, the only available special command is Break.

3.1.3.3 Starting new sessions

PuTTY s system menu provides some shortcut ways to start new sessions:

Selecting New Session will start a completely new instance of PuTTY, and bring up the configuration box as normal.

Selecting Duplicate Session will start a session in a new window with precisely the same options as your current one - connecting to the same host using the same protocol, with all the same terminal settings and everything.

In an inactive window, selecting Restart Session will do the same as Duplicate Session, but in the current window.

The Saved Sessions submenu gives you quick access to any sets of stored session details you have previously saved. See section 4.1.2 for details of how to create saved sessions.

3.1.3.4 Changing your session settings

If you select Change Settings from the system menu, PuTTY will display a cut-down version of its initial configuration box. This allows you to adjust most properties of your current session. You can change the terminal size, the font, the actions of various keypresses, the colours, and so on.

Some of the options that are available in the main configuration box are not shown in the cut-down Change Settings box. These are usually options which don t make sense to change in the middle of a session for example, you can t switch from SSH to Telnet in mid-session.

You can save the current settings to a saved session for future use from this dialog box. See section 4.1.2 for more on saved sessions.

3.1.3.5 Copy All to Clipboard

This system menu option provides a convenient way to copy the whole contents of the terminal screen up to the last nonempty line and scrollback to the clipboard in one go.

3.1.3.6 Clearing and resetting the terminal

The Clear Scrollback option on the system menu tells PuTTY to discard all the lines of text that have been kept after they scrolled off the top of the screen. This might be useful, for example, if you displayed sensitive information and wanted to make sure nobody could look over your shoulder and see it. Note that this only prevents a casual user from using the scrollbar to view the information; the text is not guaranteed not to still be in PuTTY s memory.

The Reset Terminal option causes a full reset of the terminal emulation. A VT-series terminal is a complex piece of software and can easily get into a state where all the text printed becomes unreadable. This can happen, for example, if you accidentally output a binary file to your terminal. If this happens, selecting Reset Terminal should sort it out.

3.1.3.7 Full screen mode

If you find the title bar on a maximised window to be ugly or distracting, you can select Full Screen mode to maximise PuTTY even more. When you select this, PuTTY will expand to fill the whole screen and its borders, title bar and scrollbar will disappear. You can configure the scrollbar not to disappear in full-screen mode if you want to keep it; see section 4.7.3.

When you are in full-screen mode, you can still access the system menu if you click the left mouse button in the extreme top left corner of the screen.

3.2 Creating a log file of your session

For some purposes you may find you want to log everything that appears on your screen. You can do this using the Logging panel in the configuration box.

To begin a session log, select Change Settings from the system menu and go to the Logging panel. Enter a log file name, and select a logging mode. You can log all session output including the terminal control sequences, or you can just log the printable text. It depends what you want the log for. Click Apply and your log will be started. Later on, you can go back to the Logging panel and select Logging turned off completely to stop logging; then PuTTY will close the log file and you can safely read it.

See section 4.2 for more details and options.

3.3 Altering your character set configuration

If you find that special characters accented characters, for example, or line-drawing characters are not being displayed correctly in your PuTTY session, it may be that PuTTY is interpreting the characters sent by the server according to the wrong character set. There are a lot of different character sets available, so it s entirely possible for this to happen.

If you click Change Settings and look at the Translation panel, you should see a large number of character sets which you can select, and other related options. Now all you need is to find out which of them you want. See section 4.10 for more information.

3.4 Using X11 forwarding in SSH

The SSH protocol has the ability to securely forward X Window System applications over your encrypted SSH connection, so that you can run an application on the SSH server machine and have it put its windows up on your local machine without sending any X network traffic in the clear.

In order to use this feature, you will need an X display server for your Windows machine, such as Cygwin/X, X-Win32, or Exceed. This will probably install itself as display number 0 on your local machine; if it doesn t, the manual for the X server should tell you what it does do.

You should then tick the Enable X11 forwarding box in the Tunnels panel see section 4.22 before starting your SSH session. The X display location box is blank by default, which means that PuTTY will try to use a sensible default such as :0, which is the usual display location where your X server will be installed. If that needs changing, then change it.

Now you should be able to log in to the SSH server as normal. To check that X forwarding has been successfully negotiated during connection startup, you can check the PuTTY Event Log see section 3.1.3.1. It should say something like this:

2001-12-05 :01 Requesting X11 forwarding

2001-12-05 :02 X11 forwarding enabled

If the remote system is Unix or Unix-like, you should also be able to see that the DISPLAY environment variable has been set to point at display 10 or above on the SSH server machine itself:

fred unixbox: echo DISPLAY

unixbox:10.0

If this works, you should then be able to run X applications in the remote session and have them display their windows on your PC.

Note that if your PC X server requires authentication to connect, then PuTTY cannot currently support it. If this is a problem for you, you should mail the PuTTY authors and give details see appendix B.

For more options relating to X11 forwarding, see section 4.22.

3.5 Using port forwarding in SSH

The SSH protocol has the ability to forward arbitrary network connections over your encrypted SSH connection, to avoid the network traffic being sent in clear. For example, you could use this to connect from your home computer to a POP-3 server on a remote machine without your POP-3 password being visible to network sniffers.

In order to use port forwarding to connect from your local machine to a port on a remote server, you need to:

Choose a port number on your local machine where PuTTY should listen for incoming connections. There are likely to be plenty of unused port numbers above 3000. You can also use a local loopback address here; see below for more details.

Now, before you start your SSH connection, go to the Tunnels panel see section 4.23. Make sure the Local radio button is set. Enter the local port number into the Source port box. Enter the destination host name and port number into the Destination box, separated by a colon for example, popserver.example.com:110 to connect to a POP-3 server.

Now click the Add button. The details of your port forwarding should appear in the list box.

Now start your session and log in. Port forwarding will not be enabled until after you have logged in; otherwise it would be easy to perform completely anonymous network attacks, and gain access to anyone s virtual private network. To check that PuTTY has set up the port forwarding correctly, you can look at the PuTTY Event Log see section 3.1.3.1. It should say something like this:

2001-12-05 :10 Local port 3110 forwarding to

popserver.example.com:110

Now if you connect to the source port number on your local PC, you should find that it answers you exactly as if it were the service running on the destination machine. So in this example, you could then configure an e-mail client to use localhost:3110 as a POP-3 server instead of popserver.example.com:110. Of course, the forwarding will stop happening when your PuTTY session closes down.

You can also forward ports in the other direction: arrange for a particular port number on the server machine to be forwarded back to your PC as a connection to a service on your PC or near it. To do this, just select the Remote radio button instead of the Local one. The Source port box will now specify a port number on the server note that most servers will not allow you to use port numbers under 1024 for this purpose.

An alternative way to forward local connections to remote hosts is to use dynamic SOCKS proxying. For this, you will need to select the Dynamic radio button instead of Local, and then you should not enter anything into the Destination box it will be ignored. This will cause PuTTY to listen on the port you have specified, and provide a SOCKS proxy service to any programs which connect to that port. So, in particular, you can forward other PuTTY connections through it by setting up the Proxy control panel see section 4.15 for details.

The source port for a forwarded connection usually does not accept connections from any machine except the SSH client or server machine itself for local and remote forwardings respectively. There are controls in the Tunnels panel to change this:

The Local ports accept connections from other hosts option allows you to set up local-to-remote port forwardings including dynamic port forwardings in such a way that machines other than your client PC can connect to the forwarded port.

The Remote ports do the same option does the same thing for remote-to-local port forwardings so that machines other than the SSH server machine can connect to the forwarded port. Note that this feature is only available in the SSH-2 protocol, and not all SSH-2 servers honour it in OpenSSH, for example, it s usually disabled by default.

You can also specify an IP address to listen on. Typically a Windows machine can be asked to listen on any single IP address in the 127.. . range, and all of these are loopback addresses available only to the local machine. So if you forward for example 127.0.0. to a remote machine s finger port, then you should be able to run commands such as finger fred 127.0.0.5. This can be useful if the program connecting to the forwarded port doesn t allow you to change the port number it uses. This feature is available for local-to-remote forwarded ports; SSH-1 is unable to support it for remote-to-local ports, while SSH-2 can support it in theory but servers will not necessarily cooperate.

Note that if you re using Windows XP Service Pack 2, you may need to obtain a fix from Microsoft in order to use addresses like 127.0.0.5 - see question A.7.20.

3.6 Making raw TCP connections

A lot of Internet protocols are composed of commands and responses in plain text. For example, SMTP the protocol used to transfer e-mail, NNTP the protocol used to transfer Usenet news, and HTTP the protocol used to serve Web pages all consist of commands in readable plain text.

Sometimes it can be useful to connect directly to one of these services and speak the protocol by hand, by typing protocol commands and watching the responses. On Unix machines, you can do this using the system s telnet command to connect to the right port number. For example, telnet mailserver.example.com 25 might enable you to talk directly to the SMTP service running on a mail server.

Although the Unix telnet program provides this functionality, the protocol being used is not really Telnet. Really there is no actual protocol at all; the bytes sent down the connection are exactly the ones you type, and the bytes shown on the screen are exactly the ones sent by the server. Unix telnet will attempt to detect or guess whether the service it is talking to is a real Telnet service or not; PuTTY prefers to be told for certain.

In order to make a debugging connection to a service of this type, you simply select the fourth protocol name, Raw, from the Protocol buttons in the Session configuration panel. See section 4.1.1. You can then enter a host name and a port number, and make the connection.

3.7 Connecting to a local serial line

PuTTY can connect directly to a local serial line as an alternative to making a network connection. In this mode, text typed into the PuTTY window will be sent straight out of your computer s serial port, and data received through that port will be displayed in the PuTTY window. You might use this mode, for example, if your serial port is connected to another computer which has a serial connection.

To make a connection of this type, simply select Serial from the Connection type radio buttons on the Session configuration panel see section 4.1.1. The Host Name and Port boxes will transform into Serial line and Speed, allowing you to specify which serial line to use if your computer has more than one and what speed baud rate to use when transferring data. For further configuration options data bits, stop bits, parity, flow control, you can use the Serial configuration panel see section 4.25.

After you start up PuTTY in serial mode, you might find that you have to make the first move, by sending some data out of the serial line in order to notify the device at the other end that someone is there for it to talk to. This probably depends on the device. If you start up a PuTTY serial session and nothing appears in the window, try pressing Return a few times and see if that helps.

A serial line provides no well defined means for one end of the connection to notify the other that the connection is finished. Therefore, PuTTY in serial mode will remain connected until you close the window using the close button.

3.8 The PuTTY command line

PuTTY can be made to do various things without user intervention by supplying command-line arguments e.g., from a command prompt window, or a Windows shortcut.

3.8.1 Starting a session from the command line

These options allow you to bypass the configuration window and launch straight into a session.

To start a connection to a server called host:

putty.exe -ssh -telnet -rlogin -raw user host

If this syntax is used, settings are taken from the Default Settings see section 4.1.2 ; user overrides these settings if supplied. Also, you can specify a protocol, which will override the default protocol see section 3.8.3.2.

For telnet sessions, the following alternative syntax is supported this makes PuTTY suitable for use as a URL handler for telnet URLs in web browsers :

putty.exe telnet://host :port /

In order to start an existing saved session called sessionname, use the -load option described in section 3.8.3.1.

putty.exe -load session name

3.8.2 -cleanup

If invoked with the -cleanup option, rather than running as normal, PuTTY will remove its registry entries and random seed file from the local machine after confirming with the user.

Note that on multi-user systems, -cleanup only removes registry entries and files associated with the currently logged-in user.

3.8.3 Standard command-line options

PuTTY and its associated tools support a range of command-line options, most of which are consistent across all the tools. This section lists the available options in all tools. Options which are specific to a particular tool are covered in the chapter about that tool.

3.8.3.1 -load: load a saved session

The -load option causes PuTTY to load configuration details out of a saved session. If these details include a host name, then this option is all you need to make PuTTY start a session.

You need double quotes around the session name if it contains spaces.

If you want to create a Windows shortcut to start a PuTTY saved session, this is the option you should use: your shortcut should call something like

d: path to putty.exe -load my session

Note that PuTTY itself supports an alternative form of this option, for backwards compatibility. If you execute putty sessionname it will have the same effect as putty -load sessionname. With the form, no double quotes are required, and the sign must be the very first thing on the command line. This form of the option is deprecated.

3.8.3.2 Selecting a protocol: -ssh, -telnet, -rlogin, -raw

To choose which protocol you want to connect with, you can use one of these options:

-ssh selects the SSH protocol.

-telnet selects the Telnet protocol.

-rlogin selects the Rlogin protocol.

-raw selects the raw protocol.

These options are not available in the file transfer tools PSCP and PSFTP which only work with the SSH protocol.

These options are equivalent to the protocol selection buttons in the Session panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.1.1.

3.8.3.3 -v: increase verbosity

Most of the PuTTY tools can be made to tell you more about what they are doing by supplying the -v option. If you are having trouble when making a connection, or you re simply curious, you can turn this switch on and hope to find out more about what is happening.

3.8.3.4 -l: specify a login name

You can specify the user name to log in as on the remote server using the -l option. For example, plink login.example.com -l fred.

These options are equivalent to the username selection box in the Connection panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.14.1.

3.8.3.5 -L, -R and -D: set up port forwardings

As well as setting up port forwardings in the PuTTY configuration see section 4.23, you can also set up forwardings on the command line. The command-line options work just like the ones in Unix ssh programs.

To forward a local port say 5110 to a remote destination say popserver.example.com port 110, you can write something like one of these:

putty -L 5110:popserver.example.com:110 -load mysession

plink mysession -L 5110:popserver.example.com:110

To forward a remote port to a local destination, just use the -R option instead of -L:

putty -R 5023:mytelnetserver.myhouse.org:23 -load mysession

plink mysession -R 5023:mytelnetserver.myhouse.org:23

To specify an IP address for the listening end of the tunnel, prepend it to the argument:

plink -L 127.0.0.:localhost:23 myhost

To set up SOCKS-based dynamic port forwarding on a local port, use the -D option. For this one you only have to pass the port number:

putty -D 4096 -load mysession

For general information on port forwarding, see section 3.5.

These options are not available in the file transfer tools PSCP and PSFTP.

3.8.3.6 -m: read a remote command or script from a file

The -m option performs a similar function to the Remote command box in the SSH panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.18.1. However, the -m option expects to be given a local file name, and it will read a command from that file.

With some servers particularly Unix systems, you can even put multiple lines in this file and execute more than one command in sequence, or a whole shell script; but this is arguably an abuse, and cannot be expected to work on all servers. In particular, it is known not to work with certain embedded servers, such as Cisco routers.

This option is not available in the file transfer tools PSCP and PSFTP.

3.8.3.7 -P: specify a port number

The -P option is used to specify the port number to connect to. If you have a Telnet server running on port 9696 of a machine instead of port 23, for example:

putty -telnet -P 9696 host.name

plink -telnet -P 9696 host.name

Note that this option is more useful in Plink than in PuTTY, because in PuTTY you can write putty -telnet host.name 9696 in any case.

This option is equivalent to the port number control in the Session panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.1.1.

3.8.3.8 -pw: specify a password

A simple way to automate a remote login is to supply your password on the command line. This is not recommended for reasons of security. If you possibly can, we recommend you set up public-key authentication instead. See chapter 8 for details.

Note that the -pw option only works when you are using the SSH protocol. Due to fundamental limitations of Telnet and Rlogin, these protocols do not support automated password authentication.

3.8.3.9 -agent and -noagent: control use of Pageant for authentication

The -agent option turns on SSH authentication using Pageant, and -noagent turns it off. These options are only meaningful if you are using SSH.

See chapter 9 for general information on Pageant.

These options are equivalent to the agent authentication checkbox in the Auth panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.20.2.

3.8.3.10 -A and -a: control agent forwarding

The -A option turns on SSH agent forwarding, and -a turns it off. These options are only meaningful if you are using SSH.

See chapter 9 for general information on Pageant, and section 9.4 for information on agent forwarding. Note that there is a security risk involved with enabling this option; see section 9.5 for details.

These options are equivalent to the agent forwarding checkbox in the Auth panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.20.5.

3.8.3.11 -X and -x: control X11 forwarding

The -X option turns on X11 forwarding in SSH, and -x turns it off. These options are only meaningful if you are using SSH.

For information on X11 forwarding, see section 3.4.

These options are equivalent to the X11 forwarding checkbox in the Tunnels panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.22.

3.8.3.12 -t and -T: control pseudo-terminal allocation

The -t option ensures PuTTY attempts to allocate a pseudo-terminal at the server, and -T stops it from allocating one. These options are only meaningful if you are using SSH.

These options are equivalent to the Don t allocate a pseudo-terminal checkbox in the SSH panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.21.1.

3.8.3.13 -N: suppress starting a shell or command

The -N option prevents PuTTY from attempting to start a shell or command on the remote server. You might want to use this option if you are only using the SSH connection for port forwarding, and your user account on the server does not have the ability to run a shell.

This feature is only available in SSH protocol version 2 since the version 1 protocol assumes you will always want to run a shell.

This option is equivalent to the Don t start a shell or command at all checkbox in the SSH panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.18.2.

3.8.3.14 -nc: make a remote network connection in place of a remote shell or command

The -nc option prevents Plink or PuTTY from attempting to start a shell or command on the remote server. Instead, it will instruct the remote server to open a network connection to a host name and port number specified by you, and treat that network connection as if it were the main session.

You specify a host and port as an argument to the -nc option, with a colon separating the host name from the port number, like this:

plink host1.example.com -nc host2.example.com:1234

You might want to use this feature if you needed to make an SSH connection to a target host which you can only reach by going through a proxy host, and rather than using port forwarding you prefer to use the local proxy feature see section 4.15.1 for more about local proxies. In this situation you might select Local proxy type, set your local proxy command to be plink proxyhost -nc host: port, enter the target host name on the Session panel, and enter the directly reachable proxy host name on the Proxy panel.

This feature is only available in SSH protocol version 2 since the version 1 protocol assumes you will always want to run a shell. It is not available in the file transfer tools PSCP and PSFTP. It is available in PuTTY itself, although it is unlikely to be very useful in any tool other than Plink. Also, -nc uses the same server functionality as port forwarding, so it will not work if your server administrator has disabled port forwarding.

The option is named -nc after the Unix program nc, short for netcat. The command plink host1 -nc host2:port is very similar in functionality to plink host1 nc host2 port, which invokes nc on the server and tells it to connect to the specified destination. However, Plink s built-in -nc option does not depend on the nc program being installed on the server.

3.8.3.15 -C: enable compression

The -C option enables compression of the data sent across the network. This option is only meaningful if you are using SSH.

This option is equivalent to the Enable compression checkbox in the SSH panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.18.3.

3.8.3.16 -1 and -2: specify an SSH protocol version

The -1 and -2 options force PuTTY to use version 1 or version 2 of the SSH protocol. These options are only meaningful if you are using SSH.

These options are equivalent to selecting your preferred SSH protocol version as 1 only or 2 only in the SSH panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.18.4.

3.8.3.17 -4 and -6: specify an Internet protocol version

The -4 and -6 options force PuTTY to use the older Internet protocol IPv4 or the newer IPv6.

These options are equivalent to selecting your preferred Internet protocol version as IPv4 or IPv6 in the Connection panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.13.4.

3.8.3.18 -i: specify an SSH private key

The -i option allows you to specify the name of a private key file in . PPK format which PuTTY will use to authenticate with the server. This option is only meaningful if you are using SSH.

For general information on public-key authentication, see chapter 8.

This option is equivalent to the Private key file for authentication box in the Auth panel of the PuTTY configuration box see section 4.20.7.

3.8.3.19 -pgpfp: display PGP key fingerprints

This option causes the PuTTY tools not to run as normal, but instead to display the fingerprints of the PuTTY PGP Master Keys, in order to aid with verifying new versions. See appendix E for more information.

If you want to provide feedback on this manual or on the PuTTY tools themselves, see the Feedback page.

PuTTY release 0.60.

Sorry, the mistake is on my part :

Same problem here. I am in tears. The laptop is a Dell Latitude E5430. It is brand new refurb. Following the instructions in the solutions I see here, the numbers are: PCI VEN_14E4 DEV_4727 SUBSYS_00151028 REV_01 4 67996F5 0 00E1.

I have downloaded the drivers onto my other Dell laptop and all were installed perfectly except for the Network Controller. Please help me or I will have to return the equipment as it is useless to me in this condition.

Forgot to mention the OS is Windows 7, 64bit.

i m too facing the same problem, recently i installed win _64bit in my Dell Vostro 1550 laptop. After that i m not able to connect to internet. it is showing that driver is not installed.

I am glad that the issue is resolved.

Please feel free to get in touch in case you have any further questions.

que puedo hacer para solucionar este problemaa

Just re installed windows on my laptop and I wasn t sure which drivers I was supposed to install and came across this. In device manager under the other devices tab there is:

PCI simple communications controller

Please share the system model and operating system installed.

You might need to install the chipset, video and the wireless card drivers for your computer. You may follow the steps below:

Enter the Service Tag of your system and select the operating system.

Select the category like chipset, video and click on the driver available.

Download and install the drivers by following onscreen instructions. 

If the issue persists, you may send me the system service tag via private message click my username and then click Start Conversation.

I installed the drivers following those steps and it was starting  to fix things such as my internet, but the next time I went to turn my laptop on, instead of loading windows is said invalid partition table and now I can t login.

Edit: Uh never mind, when I removed the usb with the drivers on it from my computer, windows started up. Also, when I entered my service tag it had 27 drivers I could install but I only installed the 7 from chipset, video and network. Should I download the other ones. I noticed that things like the turbo boost icon don t pop up when I turn my computer on like they used to.

In order to provide you the direct links for the drivers that needs to be installed on your computer, I would need the service tag of your computer. You may send me the system information via private message click my username and then click Start Conversation.

Hi, I have a similar problem. After a blue screen crash I reinstalled Windows 7 on my Vostro 3750 and cannot connect to the internet as several drivers are missing. I called the Dell helpline and, after the telephone line got cut a couple of times, finally got to speak to someone in IT who helped me locate 2 drivers I d need, R294380 and YPYJF and then, before I could install them, the call cut again. I ve been round in circles with this so many times, can anyone help. I seem to have installed the networikk driver OK R294380 so that the adapter is working but I still have yellow triangles against all my driver files and can t connect to the internet even via cable. I m not sure how to install the YPYJF wifi driver but have tried pointing everything to the parent folder via the device manager and nothing is picking it up. Any advice greatly appreciated, 2 days into this and I m still not much further on and Dell s 902 phonelines I m in Spain don t seem capable of holiding a call for more than a  few minutes.

In Device manager what are the. marks showing under other devices,Try enabling the Wifi using Fn F2 or Wireless switch and let us know the Status on Device manager. Double click on the Network Controller with. or.   Assume it shows under Other devices. go to details tab - Change the drop down to Hardware ID - Post the info given below in the box. We can find the driver based on the info.

Hi Veejdeej, thanks very much for the response. Fortunately I was able to get through to technical support again and get the drivers needed to get the wifi up and running again, however I still have several drivers missing all listed under Other Devices with. :

PCI Simple Communications Controller

Unknown Device - Hardware ID: ACPI SMO88 00

Unknown Device - Hardware ID: USB VID_138A PID_0011 REV_0078

As the internet is now working fine, I m not sure what, if any, impact the lack of these is having on PC performance - I m still reloading software lost after I reinstalled Windows 7 Pro to try and get back to the funcionality I had before.

One thing that I have lost is the fingerprint recognition software. I managed to find a link to the driver, but when I tried to install it it said that other necessary files were missing, so I presume I need to do a complete reinstallation of the software. Do you know how where I can get this.

SMBus: ftp.dell.com//R292605.exe

Unknown Device1: ftp.dell.com//R292744.exe

USB 3.0 Driver: ftp.dell.com//R299161.exe

TouchPad drivers for Multitouch: ftp.dell.com//R301431.exe

Audio Drivers: ftp.dell.com//R297834.exe

QuickSet App: ftp.dell.com//R299707.exe

Additional drivers given for better functionality - All drivers above are for Vostro 3750 - Windows 7 64 bit.

Visit ftp.dell.com//vostro-3750.html for accessing other Win XP/Win 8 drivers for Vostro 3750

Thanks so much for providing the links to these drivers. I ve installed them all on my Vostro 3750 Windows Pro 64 bit and all have worked, except:

It is still staying it cannot find the drivers for this device, even after I ve done the installation, and the fingerprint software still doesn t work. Any ideas on how I can resolve this greatly appreciated.

p.s. could it be that I need to download the fingerprint software again first before I install the driver. I don t know where I can obtain the software.

On my original order it is liseted as Palmrest: Fingerprint Reader Biometric

you should have got the resource cd or drivers and utilities disk from dell which would contain the drivers and application. Or you can download them from  or go to the last link in my previous post and download ST Microelectronics DE351DL Motion Sensor drivers. If you still see unknown driver then right click on it and choose update driver then choose download or search from internet and download.

The final link solved the driver problems, thanks. The fingerprint reader still isn t working though I don t get the option to swipe instead of enter my password when I restart the PC. I didn t get a software disk so I can t reload the software from  it. I tried the smartsource link but when I click the button to register my computer nothing happens. I ve now registered it through a dell account, but is there another link I can try to download the software.

I was having the same problem with my dell m5010. I installed all of the optional win 7 updates and when the laptop rebooted the network controller installed itself. Hope this works for you

Rt click on the Internet explorer thru C: Program Files X86 Internet Explorer iexplore.exe and choose run as Administrator and then go to https://smartsource.dell.com and then try Register button, then click Install SysProf or something would come This would fetch your service tag from your computer to register. You can see the softwares that were shipped along with the computer. Thru this you can get webcam central, Mcafee and Fingerprint as well i think. Please check.

Thanks. I was able to reinstall the software following these instructions, although after setting up the fingerprint reader with my fingerprint, it doesn t give me the option to swipe to start Windows like it used to and I have to manually enter my password when I restart my PC. So, although I now have the driver and the software, it doesn t appear to be functional. Any idea why.

I believe I m experiencing same problem like many people out there. I see Network Controller on Other Devices list and it has yellow exclamation mark next to it which means I need drivers.

My Network controller Hardware Ids:

PCI VEN_8086 DEV_008A SUBSYS_53258086 REV_34

PCI VEN_8086 DEV_008A SUBSYS_53258086

PCI VEN_8086 DEV_008A CC_028000

Device Instance Path couldn t find ID so posting this, maybe helpful too :

PCI VEN_8086 DEV_008A SUBSYS_53258086 REV_34 4CEB42FFFF7241C900

I didn t mention, but I have DELL Inspiron N5110 15R

This an Intel Centrino Wireless-N1030 card.

Mark as resolved if this works for you.

I m using Windows 7 64-bit and I ve tried to install the driver you mentioned above before and it didn t work.

I mean, it still shows that yellow exclamation mark next to Network Controller.

I am glad that worked for you. Rejoice with your Dell.. :

I have an Inspiron N5030 and just replaced the hard drive.  I didn t have any of the original disks so I ran the Dell recovery and restore USB key.  Now my computer won t connect to wireless router.  I have windows 7.  Checking the device manager, I have 2 issues.  One is mobile intel R 45 express chipset family and the other is network controller.  I probably need downloads for these but can t figure out how to get them to my computer that can t connect to the internet.  Need help.

VEN 14E4 and  DEV 4315 is for the wireless card installed on your computer.

VEN 8086 and DEV 2930 is for the chipset drivers.

Thanks to all for the help.  Got sick of trying to fix it and took it somewhere to get fixed.  Cost me 55.  It was something to do with the manufacturer of the driver and it wasn t dell.  Pretty easy fix for someone who knows what they are doing I guess.

But your system would have been shipped with either Dell Wireless 1703 802.11b/g/n or Dell Wireless 1704 802.11b/g/n as per support site. Did you make any hardware or software changes.

I did not make any hardware changes. The laptop was shipped with Win 8 and I downgraded it to WIn 7 OS.

These are the Laptop details :-

from the Specs, it looks like it has a Dell Wireless. . please help me with the link to the correct driver

I tried both these drivers, but none of them worked.

Dell inspiron 3421 is shipped with following wireless cards:

Intel 2230 WiFi Bluetooth 4.0 Half Mini Card

Reviewing the Hardware ID shared by you it appears that your system was shipped with Dell Wireless DW1704 card, so first try updating this driver and then try updating the Dell Wireless DW1703 drivers.

Hope this helps. Please reply if you have any questions.

I need the drivers for the Inspiron 3721 for Win8

NOPE. NOPE. and NOPE. Neither of these worked. Seriously, how hard can this be. I sent you the hardware IDs. Let me say it once again: Inspiron 3721 and Windows 8 64 bit. Are you telling me I have a special Dell Inspiron that can never use Windows 8 AND wireless.

Do I need to crack the case and look for identifying marks on the chips. This should be basic stuff. Wireless LAN driver for Inspiron 3721 with Windows 8 64 bit. Is there any way I can further clarify this. I ve been through every driver that can be downloaded for this machine and the last ones you suggested that are for neither this machine or Windows 8.

Anything. I have a machine that is of very limited use without wireless capability. I can t believe that this is posing such a problem to find the right drivers. Did the IDs not give you enough information to definitively identify the chipset and find the correct drivers. I have tried at least 8 different drivers that I ve downloaded from links in this thread. This is in addition to the driver from the download page that is recommended based on the service tag.

When this machine came to us with Win7, the wireless worked, so this is not defective or malfunctioning hardware.

This needs to be resolved. This machine will be out in the field away from wired networks. If this can t be resolved, we will return the machine and purchase a HP. This should be a simple matter.

Again, no. The install fails with a big red X. Every. Single. Driver. That. Has. Been. Suggested. Fails.

Atheros Wifi Driver for your system

I m having the exact same problem.  I have a Latitude E6430 with Windows 7 32-bit installed.  The Network Controller has the following values:

When I put in my service tag, it suggested that I install the Intel WIDI application WIDI 3.5.40.0.A03, but I received an install abort error during the install.  The error message was This platform is not compatible with Intel R WIDI or application is in use.

I would like to get the Network controller driver installed so I can use my wireless connection.

Refer the following link to install  drivers for 6205 WLAN card:

Select Download file and follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.

Restart the computer and try connecting to Wireless network.

I went to that link and downloaded the 6205 WLAN card driver.  It installed without any problem.  I restarted my computer and still no connection to Wireless networks.  I also confirmed that the NETWORK CONTROLLER is still needing a driver from my Device Manager.

I also noticed that this 6205 WLAN card driver indicates its for a 64 bit Windows 7 OS.  I have installed a 32 bit Windows 7 OS, could that be the problem.  Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

With the information you provided, I was able to find a driver by searching the Dell site.  The correct driver that worked for me was located at www.dell.com//DriverDetails.  Thanks.

Thank you so much VEEJDEEJ. . Problem Solved. .

My Dell Inspiron Duo is also suffering the same problem after a reinstall of Windows. I have a yellow exclamation mark after the Network Controller in Device Manager and another entry underneath which says Unknown device - also with yellow exclamation mark.

I have downloaded the three drivers R283212, R283215, and R297914 on another computer, and have attempted to reinstall via USB. There is no CD/DVD drive on this model.

One is for an ethernet connector, and will not install as the Dell Inspiron Duo does not have a port for an ethernet cable.

One is for the Broadcom BCM4313 WLAN Combo Card Driver, and this will not install - No compatible hardware found. The software you are attempting to install is not supported on this system ; and

The last one is for the Atheros driver, and it goes all through the installation, and then tells me in a little dialogue bubble from the wi-fi icon in the system tray that the software has not been installed.

The numbers for the Network controller are VEN_14E4 DEV_4727

Thank you for your reply.The wifi and the usb drivers worked fine but as for the graphics driver,I m getting a message You must install an intel driver first when checking for system compatibility the first step during the installation.

Also,I have two more problems.

1 When i press fn 2, the wireless button, the light the wireless light in my laptop does not go on or off always stays off but my wireless works fine.Why is that so.

2 I have no option to set the brightness of my monitor in the control panel the brightness slider isn t there and the fn keys don t work

Can you please give me the solutions.Thanks.

Please use these links to install the drivers for Intel HD graphics:

Restart the system after installing the drivers and check the functionality.

I have installed both the things now.Still,the wireless indication light never comes on if i use fn 2. but it does turn the wifi off or on..maybe the problem is with the light

I also have a serious doubt - why do i have Intel HD graphics adapter when i had ordered for Nvidia Geforce GT730M/2GB GDDR3. Have i been cheated.

It shows in the display properties that my adapter type is intel hd graphics 4000.I even have the geforce sticker stuck on my laptop.

I bought my laptop using this link.

After Intel HD video card drivers are installed, have you tried installing Drivers for Nvidia Geforce GT730M.

If not, please use this link to install NVidia Graphics driver:

Restart the computer after the driver is installed and check in Device manager if the Nvidia Geforce GT730M is detected under Display adapters:

Click Start. Right click My computer.

Click Manage and select Device Manager.

On the Device Manager window, expand Display adapters or Other devices.

Check if the card is detected.

I have a Vostro V131 and I need the network controller driver and PCI Simple Comm. Controller.

Make sure you install Intel HD Graphics driver and without restarting install the nvidia drivers  in order to use the switchable graphics.

I have the same laptop as Candel and i have the same problem but my laptop s OS is windows7 32 bits, i do have ethernet controller driver installed but under other devices i have 3X Base System Device that are not installed.

PLZ help as i cant connect to the internet with this laptop. i check out the links u posted here but is seems like they are XP and Vista Competable.

Dell Inspiron 1525 model was tested with Windows XP and Vista. Hence, Windows 7 drivers are not available for this system. However, I am sharing the drivers for Windows Vista 32Bit version. Try installing them and check if they work. If the issue still persists, try installing the drivers in compatibility mode. Below are the drivers:

Below are the steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode:

Click on the link shared above and download the drivers on the desktop.

Double click on the file and extract it on the desktop in a folder.

Look for setup file in the extracted folder. Right click . exe file and click Properties.

Click install in compatibility mode.

Click on Application and select Troubleshoot Compatibility.

Next, click on Troubleshoot Program.

Click on Program worked in earlier versions of Windows.

Do not hit Next until the installation completes.

Once the installation completes, click on Next.

Hope this helps. If the issue still persist you might have to rollback to the previous version of the Windows Installed on the system.

Thanks for the quick reply Saharsh,

The first and second installed fine and worked for the SM Bus, but when I installed the third I got the following error: This product cannot support downgrading from version 2.1.1.0153 to version 1.1.0.0537. Please uninstall the product and try again or contact the product vendor. I still have the exclamation point over the network controller.

I m not familiar with which product it is referring to.

Please try and update the drivers using the Intel Auto Driver Detect Utility.

Hope this helps. Please share the results.

The Auto Driver Detect wasn t able to discover the driver. Gave an error saying it wasn t recognized or not supported. BUT- there was an option to visit the Intel Download Center to look through generic drivers, located at https://downloadcenter.intel.com/default.aspx. Using my service tag, I went back to Dell.com to find out the name of the chipset that my system was shipped with Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230. Found it using the dropboxes and downloaded the software it recommended. That did the trick and I am squared away. Thank you for the assistance, I wouldn t have found the website without your suggestions.

You have missed a C; it should be PCI VEN_168C DEV_002A SUBSYS_0203168C

The Vendor is Atheros it is a AR9280 otherwise known as a Dell Wireless 1525 WLAN card.

The latest Dell Driver I can find for it is for Windows 7 32/64 Bit:

A later driver is found in the Unoffiicial Atheros website:

Installation of the later driver has to be done via the Device Manager.

I am also facing the same issue, My network controller driver is missing and it has a yellow exclamation in the device manager. Following your suggestions, I checked on the device Instance ID - VEN_14E4 DEV_4727.

It is a DELL INSPIRON N5010 with Windows 7 Home Premium.

Can you let me know how to resolve this.

Should be the Dell Wireless 1501 or 1520 card on the Inspiron N5010 model.

The hardware ID for the 1501 card should be:

I installed Dell Wireless 1501 card and I am able to see the network driver.  However I am not able to connect to the internet. The error shows Diagnostics Service policy is not running. When I try to start the Diagnostic Service Policy, it says Windows could not start the diagnostic policy service on Local COmputer. Error 5: Access is denied. Also, the Diagnostic Service Host and Diagnostic System Host are also not started. The start option is greyed disabled on both.

i have the same problems and the number i get are PCI VEN_14E4 DEV_1692 SUBSYS_04001028

go to start, search and type:- cmd, right click on returned cmd.exe and select run as administrator at the prompt type:-

net localgroup Administrators /add networkservice

net localgroup Administrators /add localservice

press enter and restart your computer

Open services and make sure the service is started.

Pl provide your system model and operating system, Win 7 or WIn8 or Win 8.1, 64 bit or 32 bit to provide the download link.

The ethernet card is Broadcom NetLink TM Gigabit Ethernet.

The best way is to go to support.dell.com type your Service Tag and download the drivers from the list, since those are the specific drivers for your PC

From what I can see in the Device Manager under Other devices the Network controller has a yellow triangle with a . on it, I m guessing that s the issue.

That is the Dell Wireless 1395 card.

Before installing the drivers make sure you have Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 2 installed.

After the OS update you need to install the Drivers in the correct order, starting with Dell System Software and then the Intel Chipset The drivers can be downloaded from here using your computer and saving to a USB flash drive:

For more details on driver installation see here:

Note the example is given for Windows 8.1 and is slightly different but not much.

Thanks for your help suggestions. I did what you mentioned in the above post, but I m still at the same stage as I was before with no web connection. I installed both service packs, the Dell System Software then the Intel Chipset drivers but nothing changed. Please excuse me as I am not that great when it comes to computers, I know a little but that s pretty much it. Any other suggestions

I think I may have fixed the issue, I just DL d then installed this Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN MiniCard, v.4.170.77.3 Driver ; 4.170.77.13 Application, A20

Also you need the video drivers but there are variants specify the hardware IDs under Display Adapters.

Thank you so much for the response.  I forgot to mention that it was Vista 32 bit.  Does that change what I need to instal.

You indicated that I need to install two items for Dell System Windows Vista.  One link was for 62 bit and the other 32 bit.   Do I intall both or is it one or the other depending on the Vista I installed.

I will get back to you with the Video Drivers.

Ignore the 64 Bit version of DSS and the drivers I have marked as 64 Bit. Most of the installers cover both the 32 Bit and 32 Bit architecture so I haven t mentioned 32 Bit or 64 Bit for these.

I uploaded the drivers ignoring the ones for 64 bit but when I checked Device Manger under Other Devices I still did not have the Ethernet Controller. Below is the  hardware ID:

During the installtion of one of the drivers - i don t remember which one but I received the following:  Micrsoft Windows:  Dell Update intel Intel R Wifi Link 6300 Intel R WIFI link 6250, Intel R  wifi link 6205, intel R wife link has stopped working.

i m not sure if the message above is related to not having successfully downloaded the Ethernet controller. Also don t know if it s related to other internet errors.  

I was able to connect to the wireless internet as the system was able to detect the network.  However, when I tried to use internet explorer I get the following error mssage: Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site. Operation Aborted.   If I try to type in an address directly I can get to the site but then the message pops up and closes the internet page

I ve also received these messages Show Firmware updgrade reminder stopped working and was closed

The system also provided me with a solution to my problem

1 Fingerprint reader is missing a device - security D_A12_R20283.exe.  I downloaded this, i m not sure if I should have installed it.

2 ST Micro Screen Detection isn t compatiable with this version of windows.   I didn t know what to do with this message. 

Also, I received a notice that I was using an outdated internet explorer.  I tried to download but received this message InternetExplorer 8 not compatible

You had also asked about the Display adapters - here they are.

I found newer Dell specific drivers for PCI VEN_168C DEV_002A SUBSYS_0203168C:

DW1502_Dell_W7_A02_Setup-9DTVV_ZPE.exe Dell Wireless 1502 LAN driver version 9.2.0.517 for 32bit/64bit Win7; but also supports the DW1525 card

try installing either one as I m currently using version 9.2.0.517 for the DW1525 WLAN card on my family s Dell Inspiron 620 desktop computer.

hi can you please help me with this problem.. it seems i have tried downloading all i can get to solve this problem but it seems not working.. please help me

Thank you for responding. I should have included that I have windows vista 32 bit. noticed that you had posted links for windows 7.

I am not sure if I can/should download something for windows 7 when I have vista 32 bit.

ALso. I am not sure what you meant by you have missed a c I really don t have a good grasp at what I m doing here so you re help is really appreciated.

Also, not too sure how these posts work and if you can easily read the first post and subsequent messages or if I should repeat info. For example I have Dell Latitude E6420.

I look forward to your response and what i need to do to get my computer working.

Thanks I hadn t even listed the 1601 card and have updated the driver for the 1502.

Did version 10.0.0.268 of the 1601 card work for you.

Try this for the free fall sensor although the other one I listed was supposed to be Vista compatible:

Ensure that the drivers extract and install and not just extract see here for details:

Please provide the hardware Ids and the system model e.g. Inspiron 5537. H61M-DS2 refers to the chipset not the Dell model no. See here for instructions on how to do this:

Also if you have manually installed Windows 7 see Windows Reinstallation Guide/A Clean Install of Windows 7:

Note if you are unsure about the model no, private message me the service tag and I will check the system configuration.

Thanks for the tip on installing the drivers. I had while I was installing the last batch that the ethernet driver file would extract but wouln t install.  I will try it next week as I m on vacation now.

Thank you so much for all your help.  Very much appreciated.

Makes sense the driver extracted but did not install. Its actually quite a common problem which Dell don t seem to notice regarding their drivers. Its why I highlighted in in that screenrecording video. Enjoy your vacation and post back the results when you are ready. :

Haven t tried out the 10.0.0.268 driver from Dell but I m sure it ll work with the DW1525 card.  Version 9.2.0.517 worked but got occasional connection drops with the DW1525 card.  I m avoiding the unofficial Atheros WLAN drivers from Atheros.cz or any other site because the INF files there do NOT support the DW1525 card.  device ID subsys 0203168C are not even listed on the INF files from many of those recent Atheros WLAN drivers, so I will stick with Dell specific ones from the Dell web site.

I recently updated the driver to version 10.0.0.270 from the Network_Driver_Dell_A01_W732W764-SETUP_ZPE.exe file for Windows 7 only.

I seem to have best of luck with either the latest 8.0.x, 9.1.x, or 10.0.x driver versions with no dropped connections with the DW1525 card.

Did the installer work for you natively or did you have to update manually via the Device Manager.

Back from vacation and pleased to report that the computer is up and running.  The tip on how to install the drivers was really useful.  It happened twice - where I had to manually go into the set up file.

Thanks again for all of your help.  It was really appreciated. I don t know how I would have gotten the computer to work without your help and this forum.

Great I m glad to hear that you got your system back up and running. :

I cannot download the drivers because I can t get on the network.  I ordered the driver CD from Dell but I don t think it should be this hard to tell which driver I am missing.  What is the driver called that is the network adapter for Inspiron N5050, Service Tag H14WKR1.

That tag only gives 4 drivers in Drivers and Downloads omitting most the drivers that you need.

If you are not sure which driver to download and where to download, then you may need to use an automatic driver finder tool.

Make sure that you have available internet connection when using this tool. If not, you may need another special tool called DriveTheLife for Network Card which would find and install network drivers witout internet connection.

Not sure if anyone is still following this thread, but I have the exact same problem and see the exact same thing in  my device manager as the pic above.   I  have downloaded all the recommended drivers from dell for my service tag, but the device manager still says I have no driver for the network controller.  I did a windows 7 reinstall after my hard drive crashed.  I have  a dell inspiron 3647, service tag: ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy, any help would be appreciated before I throw the think out and buy a new one.

I downloaded Obit Driver Booster2 to update the drivers.
