Wireless detection disappeared

[jovean]

This morning I turned on the computer, and my wireless connection is on (I can turn it on and off with the hotkeys), but none of the local networks (including my home network) are detected - so I can't connect to any of them. (I am currently using a wired connetion).

I did install some updates yesterday, so it might be that, but ... how to resolve?

I am using an LG R510, here is my ifconfig:
