Do you have a switch or shortcut which tunrs the wireless off and on? If so, press it.

Hi,
Where can I find the switch or shortcut? It's a laptop computer. I have tried Fn+F2 but no response. The wired network eth0 is working properly.

On the left edge of the laptop you should find a microphone jack, a headphone jack and a slider nob. That nob is your Wireless On/Off switch.
