hey, i'm using ubuntu 12.10 , few months ago i blacklisted my wireless network using following command as i wasn't using it,

Code:

 echo 'blacklist ath9k' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

now i want to enable my wireless network , how to do that ?

You should be able to just edit the blacklist.conf file and remove (or comment out - with a #) the line you added

Code:

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

or

Code:

gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

The change should take effect when you reboot
