Hello everyone. My Samsung Netbook N50 has keyboard problems. It comes and goes so I just roll with it. My latest problem is that my F9 key is not working and now I can connect wirelessly because to be able to open wireless I need to Fn + F9 to turn it on. Is there a way I can open my wireless and have it permanently open? Thanks in advance.

1. Buy a USB wireless adapter ($15-$30) and use that instead of your internal radio. It doesn't use f9.
2. Look on Youtube for a video showing you how to change your keyboard and just swap in a new one. check ebay for keyboard.
3. Look at keyboard remap and see if you can set another key to act as F9
4. Find the name of the program F9 launches and launch it from the command line.
Option 2 is the best one. With a good screwdriver and an iSesamo (search on amazon for it) it's not that bad. I've done it (but not on a samsung netbook).
Update: odds are microsoft's network troubleshooter will enable wireless as part of its repair process. give that a try.
Click the Start button Picture of the Start button, click Control Panel, and then, in the search box, type troubleshooter. Click Troubleshooting, click Network and Internet
