    Somehow I managed to make my wireless adapter disappear. The laptop is brand new and the adapter isnt showing up in device manager or anywhere else for that matter. It was working fine for the last 3 days and now its gone, almost as if it didn't come with wifi. Fn+F5 doesn't have it listed either, and the hardware toggle doesn't do anything except turn the Bluetooth on/off.

    No, but I took out the battery (shook it a little for some reason) and started it up again and now it works.

    take a look at the wireless card in your laptop, make sure it is fitted properly and nothing is loose.
