Toshiba satellite p775-s7372 internal WiFi adapter failed two days ago.

According to Device Manager (Win10 v 1709) device "Realtek RTL8188CE Wireless Lan 802.11n PCI-EN NIC" is working properly, airplane mode is OFF but WiFi stays OFF despite attempts to switch it ON from keybord (fn-F8) or touch button above the keyboard.

What else can I do?

Replace it for 12 dollars and carry on or get a USB wireless dongle
