Default turn wireless on


i am trying to connect to wireless but it keeps saying i need to turn
wireless on on my laptop. It says there should be a button on side or back of
computer, but there isnt. The wireless icon on my computer isnt lit up. Any
ideas how to turn it on? I have a Fujitsu laptop

You don't say what model so go here:
http://www.computers.us.fujitsu.com/..._gal/gal_b6210
and click on the first picture. It shows you the switch.

Refer to the manual that came with your laptop. If you do not have a
manual, go to Fujitsu's tech support website for your specific model
laptop. There will be a manual and/or information about your computer
there. Look up how to turn on the wireless.

Louise,

I have a rock laptop and I have to click the "Fn" key with F11... you will
probably have something similar. check the keys - there maybe a "wireless"
icon on one of them! (f-key)

good luck
