Wireless not working

Latest response

My wireless card is apparently switched off (the wireless switch in the laptop seems to show that it is switched off). Pressing the switch button has no effect.

I am just a linux user for this computer. My linux administration knowledge is "0",

HP Zbook 17 G3, Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260.
According to HP the wifi module works with RHEL 7.3 (Bluetooth doesn't).

When pressing the switch I get the following messages in var/log/messages:

Aug 30 12:43:30 sedesp1 kernel: atkbd serio0: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xf8 on isa0060/serio0).
Aug 30 12:43:30 sedesp1 kernel: atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e078 ' to make it known.
Aug 30 12:43:30 sedesp1 kernel: atkbd serio0: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xf8 on isa0060/serio0).

(I don't know if a have to set the key code to a specific value)
