Mobility Site - View Single Post - Radio disabled, can't re-enable

Hi everyone, I hope that this problem hasn't been put up on the site, I am new to this stuff, so please bear with me. I was playing with my axim, and found that if you tap the green bars at the bottom right hand corner of the screen ( when you have a 802.11 card installed ) a screen pops up, that shows a picture of a laptop, and tells you about your wireless network status.

well, i checked out the tools menu on the bottom of that screen, and one of the options was "disable radio" so just to see what it did, i picked it. and lo and behold, the wireless was disabled. I thought, oh that is clever, and then reversed the process to enable it again, and guess what? i can't. no how many times i pick that option, i cannot re-enable it. and i don't know what to do to re-enable it, i tried going through the wireless system menus, and other things, but no dice. does any kind soul out there have a way for me to get my wireless connection working again?

thanks in advance if you can help.
