So I got a new laptop today, an Asus N61J-X2. It's fairly nice for the price.
At any rate, I was messing with the buttons and Fn+F2 turns on/off my wireless. Well it turns off my wireless anyway. I am having some difficulty turning it back on. :?
Aside from Fn+F2 I also have the Asus Wireless Console Utility. Double clicking that should turn on/off my wireless, but it did not work. It showed a little wireless tower icon, but otherwise did nothing. I actually uninstalled it and now the icon that appears when I hit Fn+F2 is much bigger and clearly states "Wireless LAN Off" no matter how many times I hit it. When the wireless is on the little LED light at the edge of my keyboard should light up. It does light up when I check for driver updates or fiddle with the wireless card's settings.
I should mention that my wireless was working fine until I hit Fn+F2 and turned it off.
What the fuck am I missing? I know it must be something dumb.

(yes, that does mean there are two switches. One is the hardware switch, the other is the software switch. Both should be on for it to work)
If this fails, go to Device Manager and disable/enable/uninstall/reinstall drivers for your wifi card.
