Bluetooth Power Off on Vostro 1015

Question

Hello, Dell Community I have been having problems with my Bluetooth device since I bought my laptop. I downloaded the Toshiba Stacking and all possible drivers that suit my computer, but I get the feeling that it could not connect with the hardware itself. I am using Windows 7. When I try to fix the problem, the program opens a window 'Activate Bluetooth by Fn + F2 or Radio On/Off button.' ot something. With the Fn + F2 keys there is no effect and I have no idea where to switch on or off the radio. By the way, the Bluetooth light on my laptop is on all the time. I have no idea how to solve the problem and truly hope someone here can help.

the correct switch on the 1015 is Fn + F11, perhaps that would work...although I'm sure you've found an answer by now...

I'm having a similar issue. I'm coming from the same place of having tried all the suggested Drivers: R223642 R231570 R286349 R288378 BT/WLAN is enabled from the BIOS. BT 'Radio' does NOT show up in the Device Manager. BT light is NOT on and neither f2 nor f11 turns it on. F11 only disables/enables Wifi. BT Support Service is 'Automatic' in Component Services. Searching for devices in Add New Device does not work. I need some help, please.
