How to turn on wireless connection on Dell Inspiron 710

ISSUE

Your Dell Inspiron laptop does not connect to wireless anymore. When you open the wireless icon on the taskbar, but no wireless connections is detected. You look around the laptop to find wireless switch and make sure it’s on but still no wireless connection is found on the list.

You even go into services.msc and make sure the Microsoft Zero Wireless service is started. I believe many people have gone through problems like that,  they also re-installed wireless card driver but nothing make it work.

CAUSE

Laptop keyboard has many Fn combination keys for special functions, if you look at the top of the keyboard, there are some icons with different colors under the F1 to F12 keys. The functions include volume control, Bluetooth, brightness of screen etc. But the cause of the wireless connection occurs because the Fn key for the wireless is off maybe by accidently by your kids or you were cleaning your keyboard.

SOLUTION
