WiFi driver issue, Wont turn on

Okay, we are getting there. Turn Airplane mode off. Next go to device manager, and see if your wireless adapter is listed

IDK what I did but its working now :)

Thats good to hear! Remember the F12 key, maybe pressing it on and off did the trick.

I don't really know how to say this but my wifi wont turn on, when I diagnose the driver it says I need to turn the wifi button thing on but this laptop doesn't have one so how do I enable wifi without the button

Answer: You have to turn on wifi key using keyboard
for dell Computer it is F2 Button ( FN+F2)

If you trying to turn on wifi using FN+F2 the bluetooth function only will turn on ( in desktop window)

So try below as mentioned:

1) Open Wifi settings ( go to desktop taskbar, left button on wifi sign then right button on wifi sign, go to settings)

2) Select WIFI ( You can see wifi button turn on/Off)

3) from where press FN+F2 ( for dell it is F2, find what key is suitable for your computer)

4) WIFI will be turned on
