Reboot solves the problem. I am able to see a couple of WiFi

working again is good.
Dick,
The first time the radio in my Dell Latitude didn't work I found the
switch turned off. It happened inadvertently most likely when I was
holding
the front of the unit while putting it in the case or taking it out.
Since
then I always look at the switch position to ensure I've not turned it
off.
My old Acer Aspire laptop had a button on the front edge of the case. I
used to hit it unintentionally, too. On this case the switch is a tiny
slide switch on the left edge at the front. It look similar to a latch,
such as might be used to release a battery. I may have moved it when I
was looking for something else. I never have a reason to use it at home,
and usually turn off Wi-Fi with software. Oh, well. I've learned something.
Travel safely,
Thanks.
