Help I accidently turned off my wireless Linksys on my lap

top. I was trying to safely turn off a USB external drive and turned off the wireless instead. Can't figure out how to turn it back on. Any help very much appreciated. Got to get it back up today, I have a closing tonight.

I did exactly what you said but there is no Enable.

The options are
Update driver
Disable
Uninstall
Scan for hardware changes
Properties

Thanks so much for trying to help me

Try to disable first then right click to enable and it should work I've done this several times and it comes back online. After you enable you may need to restart
