acer-wireless on an Ideapad, eh? Please run:Is the module acer-wmi loaded? If so, that's our offender. Let's remove it:
Code:
sudo modprobe -r acer-wmi
sudo rfkill unblock all
Now does your wireless work? If so,let's blacklist it so it doesn't come back again:
Code:
sudo su
echo "blacklist acer-wmi" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
exit
Post back your result so the searchers will learn.
Re: Lenovo IdeaPad Z570-1024D9U - Laptop (Wireless Help)
OMG it worked :) ...this disabled the offending driver which I believe is the default for ubuntu. This allowed the process to connect and allow me to connect to the router. Did full restart and system automatically reconnected with router. :)
Thank you so much :)
Where can I learn more about ubuntu and coding so I can help users in the future?

I'm glad it's working! Have fun!
I am sure there are books but I just read the forums and examine my test system, an older laptop with nothing too crucial on it. If I make a mistake, I can reinstall or otherwise without losing my essential files.
Broward County?? I hearda that place. I spent quite a few years in Boca before I moved to SC.
Would you please use thread tools at the top to Mark Solved?
