Netbook not connecting to Wi-fi.

miggiwoo

Have got a Zoostorm netbook and am having a problem connecting to wi-fi.
When I siwtch on the netbook it always connects automatically to my broadband.This past couple of days it shows when I switch it on I get the message " No network connection availible".
Tried the troubleshooting mode and it detects that "Wi-Fi capability is switched off" and says to use switch on side or back of computer to turn it on.
Cant find any switch on the side or back and as far as my limited knowledge goes , have been pressing F2 (as this has the symbol of a wi-fi ?)

Is there anything I am doing wrong or should I be looking elsewhere for a button

thanks for any help. :money:

Try along the front of your computer, it will only be a tiny switch.

Been there, done that..........

It won't be F2, it will be Fn key + F2.

Thanks for the replies.There isnt any small button on side , front or back.Have also tried Fn with F2 but still no success.
Not sure what to try next.
Maybe a problem with the button ?

We don't know which model Zoostorm netbook you have, see here for more info.

sorry , its a Zoostorm Freedom 10-270.
Had it about 2 Years and never had this problem before.

Along the line of tiny lights is there an obvious one that isnt lit up
(orange) look along there for the button.

Have you tried turning your router off, leaving it a minute then trying the Fn and F2 together.

Anything is worth a try............

Try re-installing the wireless device drivers as shown here as others have had similar problems. Click on each image to enlarge.

Am looking at the row of lights and only the power light is lit up.
The wifi indicator light is blank.
