Airplane Mode won't Turn Off on Surface

Problem

Trying to connect to the network offsite but airplane mode will not shut off. It says I need a systems admin to do so.

Solution

  1. Swipe the screen from right to left.
  2. should bring "Action Center" on the left of your screen.
  3. Click on the Wi-Fi (that should disable the Airplane mode).

If that does not work, try restarting the device. That usually resets the settings to default.
