Wireless turned off
My son was using the computer early today and I got back on and could not get on the internet.
Says "Wireless is turned off. Use the wireless ON/OFF switch to enable it"
I have tried the Fn+F2 and just F2. I also tried looking for Quickset and I cannot find that either. Saw similar problems looking through other forums but I don't understand much about computers and can't quite figure out what the solutions are. I have a Latitude D620.
Help would be great, thanks.

p_wardle89,
Did you try the wireless switch on the left side? Number 6

p_wardle89,
Network Cable Unplugged is common and shouldn't be a problem, if using wireless.
Try looking at the places to see if the Connection is enabled
