TIP:  Can’t Connect to the Wireless

When our customers call us and can’t connect to the wireless, the #1 issue is that the wireless is off on the laptop.  Most laptops have a wireless switch which, depending on laptop make/model, is most commonly found on the left or right side of the laptop / tablet.  In come cases this switch is also found on the front of the laptop.

Additionally sometimes there is a key combination or a single key, look for a wireless icon on your keyboard (shown below).  In this case you press and hold hte <FN> key and then press the <F2> key to alternatively turn off or turn on the wireless function of the computer.  See your computer manufacturer’s users manual for additional details.
