    I have a laptop - Comapq CQ50-210US....for the last few versions of Ubuntu I have wasted hours trying to get my Athero chipset to work - and then with Ubuntu 10.10 it worked! It's not a laptop I used much and at some point in time it quite working. The "rfkill unblock all" command fixed it. I'll have to do some reading on that but my hat's off to chile555 on that one

    You can make it permanent on boot.
    Code:
    sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
    Add one line above exit 0
    Code:
    rfkill unblock all
    Proofread, save and close gedit; you should be all set.

    I can't connect to my wireless connection in Ubuntu, it says "Wireless Network Connections Disabled". I can use wireless just fine in Windows Seven which I'm dual booting with Ubuntu using Wubi. I've found that my Acer 5532 has a wireless button next to the power button. This enables wireless and it turns on (lights up orange) automatically while I'm booting up Windows Seven, but I can't even turn it on manually by pressing in Ubuntu it stays off.

    PLZ REPLY!

    @conn0r--

    Are you sure you have an Atheros ath5k wireless card? If not, please start a new thread. Send me a private message with the link if I don't catch it right away. Please include in your thread the results of these terminal commands:
    Code:
    sudo lshw -C network
    rfkill list all
    Thanks.
