Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

• What is the product number of your device? the notebook model number seems to be incorrect. Use this link to find it: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03754824

Normally F12 key is to enable WiFi options.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
