Cannot find WiFi Switch for Precision M6500
Hi - Feeling real dumb on this one - had wifi on for months, with usual blue symbol lit up - then, for some unknown reason I suddenly couldn't connect without a cable.
Seen there's a switch on the r/h side of the unit, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Have looked on here for the "Manual" - but couldn't find any relevant info/pics etc.
Please advise!
Many Thanks
Jon

The switch on the right side (closest to the front) is for turning on the wifi. Should be slid to the back for ON, but check the markings; I is on, O is off.
Do you have the wifi synbol in the Notification area? If so, you may need to manually reconnect to your router.
Your wireless portion of your router may also have failed. See if you can connect with another laptop.

Thanks for both replies - looks like my wifi card may be knackered will have to sort it out when I get home after New Year.
Happy New Year to all!!"
