If you cannot use the "FN" - key on your internal keyboard try Quickset to launch Wireless

Try pressing the "Launch" button of the Wireless Switch (left lower corner) - the menu "Radio Control Options" should pop up

remove the tick that turns on "All the Radios" and "Apply"- this should - hopefully - turn on the Wireless (see picture below)

just re-installed Quickset (I am running Windows 8) and it worked for me.

Apart from the "Connectify" - program - can your laptop see the router and is connected to the internet normally or do you get the same message as in the picture below (a copy your pic) ? For the time being it is better not to run Connectify as long as you do not have a proper internet connection.

ahmad.roz,

 

Please continue with MicroTest

 

Additional information that may help.

 

Start, control panel, device manager, network adapters, double click on the Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Half Mini Card, click on advanced. Look for antenna diversity. Change it from Auto to Aux.
