Wifi card not working

Hey guys. Been a long time since I've been around here. Anyway long story short, my neice was using my 751h and somehow messed up my wifi card. The best I can tell is that she was trying to adjust the volume(fn + up arrow) and hit a wrong button. Problem is that I can't figure out what she did. All's I know is that she asked how to turn it up and a couple of seconds later the wifi went out.

I'm using w7 and it shows that my card is connected and working properly but for some reason it won't recognize any wireless networks. I'm about to try to get a driver update and transfer it via flash drive but if that doesn't work, do y'all have any other ideas?

 

Is the wireless indicator lit down by the bottom of the keyboard? This is basic but if it is not lit try toggling the little switch.

Too bad all computer problems are not this easy to fix!!
