I know about the button on the front to turn on the device, but what are the other settings I should check to verify it is qworking or not, like loopback ping? ping 127.0.0.1, are there other tricks to know?
Are you having the wifi connected?

It's not entirely clear what you're trying to say, as you seem to have forgotten to describe the real problem here. Different problems, different troubleshooting.
Which wireless device are you going to troubleshoot? The Lenovo laptop itself? Or use the laptop to troubleshoot other wireless devices?
I am sorry, you are correct. There are a ton of drivers. This would be the Wi-Fi on a Lenovo laptop. I am trying to trouble shoot the Wi-Fi on this laptop. I have the button turned on and the drivers loaded but stll cannot see any Wi-Fi networks and am right next to a connection? I am just trying to get the best way tp trouble shoot this if I do not have Wi-Fi signal? More on trouble shooting thean fixing right now. I have done a bit but was wondering what is the best way to trouble shoot the Wi-Fi not working? Thanks. Hope this makes more sense.
