    I'm on here for a friend. His Siemens Fujitsu Amilo LI 2727 has its wireless capability mechanism turned off at all times.

    Windows Diagnostics tells us to turn on a button on the side or front of the laptop or enter a number code.

    Anybody know how to help?

    You hold down the fn key and press it. There are usually symbols on the number keys which depict the function they have when used with the fn key.

    A quick check on the fujitsu site shows that its actually the fn+f1 keys that need to be pressed.

    If that doesnt work then check the device manager to ensure that the wireless card is working and hasnt been disabled at some stage.
