Thanks Luke. There is a slide switch on the side of the computer that I didn't even know was there that got moved at some point.

FYI it did not appear to turn off bluetooth but I didn't have anything connected that way so I can't verify that.

For some reason my computer has decided to turn on airplane mode and

airplane mode is back on.  In theory if I read correctly I should be
able to show this in the network menu but I can't find any place to
do that.  Also it doesn't find any of the wireless in the area
including my own.

First, are you on a laptop? If so, you may have accidentally turned off all 
radios either with a switch, or with a shortcut key. If a shortcut key, you 
need to press it again to turn things back on. I don't know what shortcut key 
that would be, since all machines are different.

Have you checked the options in the network menu, enabling wireless networking, 
and networking etc? Have you also checked to see if bluetooth is turned on from 
the bluetooth menu?
