    Go to Start Menu>Right Click Computer>Properties>Device manager on the left. In the Device Manager right click on the Wlan adaptor under "Network Adaptors" and choose enable.
    Some laptops have a FN key combination to disable the wifi radio, others have an actual on off switch somewhere on the laptop, so look out for this as well
