Hi,
I have PCI Wi-Fi adapter Netgear WPN311. It worked fine out of box in Ubuntu 9.10, but not in 10.04
Code:
iwconfig:
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
lspci -vv

So NetworkManager has only Wired network: ath0
After installing Madwifi lspci -vv has some changes:

But still nothing changed in the system.
Swopped modules using modprobe -r, blacklisted them /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf. Also changed /etc/modules one by one. Rebooted every time. BUT NOTHING!
