Tried many fixes but nothing worked out.. the below is what helped me solve the issue..
Find “Window Power Shell” using Windows + F key.. run.. the command below
get-Wmiobject -class win32_networkadapter -namespace root\CIMV2 | where-object {$_.Name -match “Wifi” -or $_.Name -match “wireless” -and $_.name -notmatch “Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter” -and $_.netenabled -eq $false} | % {$_.enable() }
Now right click wifi network and diagnoze and fix to make wifi on
Flex User 
i can’t find that 😥
It worked 😀
please give us the step to fix this problem
I did diagnosis of the problem and solution.. the reason for the problem is overheating of the laptop.. (wifi is main reason for over heating) thus the wifi is disabled as first preventive measure..
fix for the same in ubuntu 12.10
sudo rmmod -f dell-laptop
sudo rfkill unblock all
rfkill list all
help me open that
Doesn’t work for me… 😦
did work for me either
I meant to say the process above did not work for me either.
Is the problem the result of the latest update or overheating as some suggest?
doing a restart after the exercise mentioned above has fixed the problem
press a network button in keyboard. that’s it.
It doesn’t work for me… 😦
My WiFi doesn’t turn on plz help m
