Press the key on the function key row on the keyboard to enable or disable wireless. The wireless on or off icons appear on the screen to indicate the status.

Wireless enabled

Wireless disabled

NOTE: The wireless key allows you to quickly turn off all wireless radios (Wi-Fi and Bluetooth®) on your computer, such as when you are asked to disable all wireless radios on an airplane flight.
