    You can enable or disable your wireless with a combination of keys on your keyboard, or with a dedicated wireless switch. On Acer notebooks and netbooks, the following methods are used:

    • The FN and the key with the wireless icon on your keyboard. (Usually Fn + F3)
    • A dedicated button, located above the keyboard.
    • A toggle switch, located on the front or side of the device.

    Restart your laptop, as a simple restart can often resolve connectivity issues. Ensure that the Wi-Fi is enabled in the network settings by going to "Settings" > "Network & Internet" > "Wi-Fi" and making sure it is turned on. Open Device Manager, expand the "Network adapters" section, right-click on your Wi-Fi adapter, and select "Update driver" to check for driver updates. Additionally, ensure that Airplane Mode is turned off by toggling it on and off using Fn + F10.

    There are two problems;

    • Press FN + F3 and check the wifi.
    • There may be a software problem, please download and install the latest driver from the acer website with your model number and restart the pc. Usually, such problems can occur in mediatek wifis.

    The biggest reason why the problems are not solvedis if someone who says there is a problem with the GPU says; If I change the case, will the problem be solved? That's the whole point! The concepts are different! We should not go off topic.

    Hi, your laptop may be in Airplane Mode, press F9 or Fn+F9 to enable Wi-Fi (on my PHN16).

    Yes, Nitro 16 laptops have an Fn key combination to enable/disable Wi-Fi. It's usually Fn + F3. If Wi-Fi is missing, check if Airplane Mode is enabled (Fn + F10) or if Wi-Fi is turned off in Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi.
    Here's a more detailed breakdown:
    Fn + F3:
    This key combination is commonly used on Acer Nitro 16 laptops to toggle Wi-Fi on and off.
    Airplane Mode:
    If Airplane Mode is on, it will disable all wireless communication, including Wi-Fi. Check if it's enabled using Fn + F10.
    Network Settings:
    Verify that Wi-Fi is enabled within Windows settings: Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Wi-Fi and make sure it's switched on.
    Other Function Keys:
    Some Nitro 16 models might use different function keys (F1-F12) with the Fn key to control wireless.
    Driver Issues:
    If Wi-Fi is missing entirely, it could be a driver issue. You might need to update or reinstall the Wi-Fi drivers.
