Hi, can anybody help please? I used to be able to press FN F1 and a window opened up so that I could enable or disable my WLAN. But that no longer works and my wlan indicator light isn't lit up. Can I fix this problem myself or do I need to have it repaired?

Go into Services and scroll down to WLAN and make sure it is set to automatic and is running.

Hi jock and thanks for your reply.. sorry I'm only just getting back to you, but the website kept being busy. Anyway, I have tried what you suggested but I still haven't got any further.... there must be something else wrong but thanks for trying. Susie x

There should be a small button on your laptop for turning on/off Wi-Fi ?
