Did you check to see if your laptop has a specific WiFi on/off button or toggles on and off via one of the Function keys along the top row of the keyboard? Should be one with this symbol and it may have inadvertently gotten turned off.

It might not be THAT specific key (F3), but one of them likely has that wifi symbol. Try pressing it once to see if it turns the wifi back on.

yeah it doesnt have that key

It has no function key, or any other key, with the little radio tower symbol on it?

If not, then there is likely a slider switch somewhere on one of the sides of the unit.

Should be in the same place as this unit, in front, below the level of the keyboard, just below where your left hand would rest.
