    Last night my Laptop Thinkpad T42 wireless was working but when I used it this morning, the Laptop can't scan for wireless network anymore. It saids to turn on the wireless switch on. I know the Thinkpad has no wireless switch and I have to use the Fn+F5 buttons. When I do that, I can see in the wireless radio that the power is on and the Bluetooth is off. Even though the is power on, it still can't scan anything. What's the Bluetooth? When I turn off the power, the Bluetooth turns on.

    Edit: Nevermind, problem solved. All there was needed to do was unplug the modem and plug it back in.
