Re: I have an Asus A53T Laptop and I cannot turn Wireless...
I think that in your laptop, the wireless transmitter can be toggled between the ON and OFF states by the pressing the function key and the F2 key at the same time, i.e. <FN> + <F2> or .

You may do WoL if your Lan adapter (cable or wireless) has the capability. Check DeviceAdministration/Select network card/Properties/Advanced I was not able to WoL through Atehros 9285 wireless on my Asus Laptop
First of all you just can't swap the internal wireless card. You have to make sure it is compatible with your laptop. Your best bet is to buy a usb wireless adapter that has blue tooth capabilities.
there should be a small button under your laptop by the mouse, click it to the right until you see the satallite dish appear or any other icon your lap has for wireless.
Right click the wireless icon in the lower right hand corner by your clock and click view available wireless networks. Then select configure advanced settings. Click on the wireless networks tab.
In the lower part of the screen select your wireless network and remove it. Reboot the laptop
Once back on, view available wireless networks again, double click yours and join it again. It may ask you for your password so make sure you have that handy.
*Wireless capability will automatically be on as lon as you have a wireless adapater or a wireless card or a built in Wireless in your motherboard that is properly installed to your computer
*you can check if the wireless card is properly install go to start - control panel network and sharing center and @ the left part of the window try to check if you will find Manage Wireless Network if not then the driver is not installed
*the driver of the wireless adater usually can be downloaded on the manufacturers website :)
I can figure out that your laptop runs Windows Vista. Go to Control panel, then Network and Sharing centre and then go to Manage Network Connections and see if the Wireless Network Connections icon is disabled, make sure it is enabled and not connected. Try disabling and enabling it again. If still no go, try to manually turn off the wireless switch and turn it back ON. Check the light status (if any), confirm the error message too. If still, it seems not to be working, then the internal switching might have gone bad. You need to get the laptop serviced.
