How do I turn my Radio on and off?
You will need to turn the WiFi adapter radio off (and on) on different occasions. For example, you may be
required to turn the radio off when boarding an airplane. You can also turn it off to conserve battery power.
There are three methods to turn the radio on and off:
Using the wireless radio hardware switch (may not be present on all computers).
Using the WiFi On / WiFi Off button in the WiFi connection utility.
Using Windows.
Remember that to connect to wireless networks, the wireless radio needs to be turned back on. If you are unable
to connect to a wireless network, verify that your radio is turned on at both the hardware switch and the WiFi On
/ WiFi Off button in the WiFi connection utility.
See Turn the Radio on or off
for more information.
