    For some reason my wireless adapter stopped working. My wireless adapter is turned on (I see the light on) however when I go into my Network Connections, I do not see an adapter for wireless. Local Area Connectiom. VPN, and two other TAP Win32 adapters V9 (for work VPN).

    I checked Device Manager and don't see the wireless adapter present. Bluetooth is however and is working.

    I'm also aware of the FN button to enable & disable the wireless function. That is on with the white light.

    I also tried re-installing the drivers and that doesn't seem to work either.

    I'm not sure if it's a hardware failure and don't really want to try a factory restore (last resort)

    Any help is greatly appreciated!
