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?
