WiFi Problem Solved

After returning home and trying to access the Internet, no connection could be found. After checking to see if the WiFi was actually on and that the router was OK, I figured out that I had to enable the wireless adapter in my laptop by pressing F2.

After pressing F2, the wireless signal turned on and I was good to go. I have no idea why it was off, but now I know one use for the F2 function key!
