Hey all,

I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 notebook. Two days ago my wireless just stopped working for no reason. The wireless switch is set in the "on" position, but the light next to it remains orange instead of turning to blue. In addition, I am unable to find any networks. My drivers are up to date and everything else with the wireless seems to be in order, so I'm thinking that maybe the switch itself is busted. Is there any way to turn the wireless on or off independently of the switch?
