Unable to connect to WIFI/Airplane mode is stuck on.

[Alib333]

I have been trying to get logged into the internet but it is stuck in airplane mode and I cannot connect to the internet. My F12 button is lit up orange and doesn’t change when I hit it. When I look at airplane mode in settings it’s green and won’t let me turn it off. Nothing shows up under wireless devices. I cannot figure this out. I have tried to look at other people’s questions but it doesn’t work. I restarted my Modem and nothing works. Please help!
