    Please edit your post and use proper grammar and punctuation, to the best of your ability. There's no need to use "shorthand" language. It's very hard to decipher what you are trying to say.

    We do not expect 100% perfect grammar here, but if you make your posts as readable as possible, you will get responses & help.

    Check the laptop for a wifi switch. Most have an ON-OFF switch for wifi, and some use a keyboard combination to turn wifi on or off.

    The manufacturer and model number of the laptop may help...

    Additionally if this is your primary or only system then please enter your System Details. It helps us in answering your questions!

    EDIT: If you Toshiba is anything like mine then FN+F8 should toggle wireless on/off
