Wireless suddenly stopped working Sager NP8255

I had to force reset my laptop since it got randomly frozen. Upon re-entering windows, my wireless will not turn on. It detects no networks, which I believe is a sign that the wireless was turned off. I tried toggling the fn+f11 which is airplane mode toggle, as well as accessing the fn+esc menu and attempting to toggle the wireless on and off. Neither of those worked, so I thought I'd try to reinstall the wlan network drivers, which also didn't work.

Is there anything else I could try? A wifi specific shortcut that I'm not aware of? I'm on win 7. I'd try calling into Sager but they're closed right now.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm in a bit of a rush and sort of stuck.

 

You tried going through Windows? Open Network and Sharing Center from the tray, click Change Adapter Settings on the left and see if you can enable it there.
Also Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center...

 

I went in through Change Adapter Settings. It is enabled, so I tried to turn it off, then on and still not connections detected.

If it helps, hitting airplane mode/specifically disabling wireless doesn't change anything in the Change Adapter Settings menu. By that I mean when I go into airplane mode, the bluetooth icon is removed from the Adapter settings, but the same cannot be said for the Wireless icon.

This is starting to remind me of the time when I installed Linux Mint onto my laptop and it ended up disabled my wireless on the windows partition. I had to reinstall linux to get it to work. Except this time only windows no linux.



EDIT: In case anyone cares, for some reason now it suddenly started working again. I went home to grab my wifi dongle, and after I logged into windows it was working again. Went back to my aptment and everything started working fine.

Very frustrating...
