Just received my xps 14 today.
0.1% battery wear but showing weak wifi signal.
Here is a SpeedTest comparison of the xps 14 vs. my custom desktop using a Cisco usb wifi adapter.

the wifi wake up issue is persistent. I tried to uncheck the power management from wifi in device manager, either way won't fix it. It wasn't like this in the first few days though.

So, I bit on this and it came Friday. Some observations...
- It is a really well built machine. Definitely worth the price premium over cheap plastic options
- It is not light but not super heavy...

To check the refurbished laptop's battery wearing, there is a tool BatteryBar free download.
Mine shows 8% wear, but it still gives a 5 -6 hours on full charge.

Same thing happened to me, however it's likely because the drivers are way outdated on these machines. I updated my drivers and it fixed the problems for now. Same for any wifi issues.

I can attest the xps 14 when in range, both 2.5ghz and 5ghz brings above expected speed, comparing to some others who claim xps 14 wifi problem, made me wonder if router is the key.
