The switch is also know as the radio button. Actually, there is a hardware
switch and a software switch.

The fine manual covers this issue.

Have a close look at the "F" keys? On Toshiba it is on one of those as well
as some models have a small slider switch on the front or side. (dif models)
Some have the "f" key as well as the slider but haven't got the wireless
card installed!!

Well, I was wrong. The (no so) fine manual from Dell does not mention this
button. However, the manual for the Intel wireless adapter does discuss how
to turn the radio on and off.
