    I have a sager np8170. I restarted and now my wlan is not working. I tried to unplug and replug it back in and still nothing. Anyone have any ideas? Is there a shortcut on the keyboard that would disable it? Thanks

    What's it doing?
    Not showing networks? Showing an error in device manager?

    Did your restart happen to coincide with any Windows updates?

    No update. Nothing shows in device manager. Not even an error. I am trying ubuntu live Cd and nothing as well. Looks like its hardware related.
