Intel Pro Network Connection~Helpless|Where is Hardware Switch?

If you can't find a phisical hardware switch, try to look for a "FN + <Some Button>" key combination on your keyboard.

Buttons for FN combination are normally printed with different color (same as your FN key's color) on your keyboard, in this case look for something with a simbol such as a wireless antena. Hope this can help.

Try the instruction manual. There normally quite informative of things like that.;)

yes, my dell is fn f2. Also, check and make sure wireless in enabled in your bios. Check along the sides of the case for a switch though also, some have the switch too.

I have the same problem. It tells me I nead to enable my hardware swtich. However there is no external hardware switch, and no fn+ combos work.
I have an Alienware area 51 m5790
Any advise??

I have got same problem with my Laptop Toshiba Satellite 100-785

dont downlaod the generic intel ones - download the driver from the laptiop manufatures site. The intel ones are generic and your laptop may or may not have things it requires (e.g a h/w switch) whereas your manufatures one is specically designed for your system , so it will not refer to things you dont have

Ok.

I am an Alienware/Voodoo Tech Connasieur (sp).
There is no "Switch". Switch is just the term they use as referring to the internal counterpart of the "button" you are supposed to push. lol

Why they do this I have no idea.
It beats the hell out of me.

Anyways, to get to the point:
There are 4 buttons above the keyboard of your Alienware/Voodoo laptop. (internet) (>) ("Hardware Switch") (Power)

Well, I just thought I'd let you know in case you guys were getting frustrated with the Fn+(w/e) crap. Because not every computer is set up for use with that function.

If anyone needs any future help with any Tech problems with their Alienware of Voodoo laptop feel free to e-mail me at:
