Try resetting bios defaults 1st
You can use an external keyboard and the scroll Lock key in place of the Fn Key, or get a replacement keyboard here:

My Dell Inspiron E1505's wireless switch is off.
This happened to me using a Dell Inspiron laptop. The wireless switch was disabled and the answer was supposed to use both the blue Fn and regular F2 function key to enable wireless connection. I tried Fn and F2 together and it did not work. I tried just F2 alone and it worked.

How can i turn my inspiron 6400 wifi on?
Press the FN+F2 to turn on then the wifi light will turn green.
Else you'll have a sliding switch in the sides of the laptop to turn on wireless.

Good luck.
