At first, I thought the internet connection is down since it was raining hard. But I tried another device that has wi-fi and was able to connect to the internet. So, I thought my wi-fi card could be dead or need replacement which is a bad thing since, replacement for a Dell could cost me money. Good thing Dell also has a diagnose tool for wi-fi and asked me to press the wi-fi button. It worked, I have now wi-fi connection.
I didn't want that to happend again, and searched for a solution to turn it off, since I rarely use that quick set buttons provided by dell. In fact, since I'm a developer, I often need to access the function keys; which is a hasle since I have to press 'Fn' (function) button to use it. Anyway the solution is as follows:
- type on the run line in Win 7 "msconfig".
- select the tab startup
- look for Quickset checkbox, un-check it
- click apply button (system will ask you restart to implement changes)
After the restart, my quick set buttons don't function anymore which is what I wanted. I can still activate it thru the same process of running 'msconfig'. I may just need to restart my computer again to activate it.
