    I picked up an older Acer Aspire 5250, Win. 10, am not getting a WiFi signal, when I hit the icon, says WiFi not connected, I go to the WiFi icon and it is off, but after trying the on/off choice it does not turn on. Help!

    check in device manager to see if the wireless card is enabled.

    Thanks again D, another mystery, out of nowhere the connection returned, rebooted about 5X to see if it was a lark, and still connected. Happy Thanksgiving.
