    Today my wireless have been turning off for no apparent reason. I'll be online just fine one minute and then a little later my wireless radio is turned off. The physical switch on the front is in the same position, but the wireless light on the bezel is off. I hit Fn+F5 and notice that the radio is off, as if I turned it off or something. Has anyone been experiencing this? This just started happening today.

    did you update the driver or bios recently? what make sure you switch off power saving feature in the wireless card properties. Also make sure you switch the roaming aggressiveness to low.
