I have an hp pavilion dv5. When you say manufacturers site, what exactly do you mean?
Hi, go to the hp documentation page for your computer then post a link here so we can look at it.
Thanks
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for:

Hi, if you have windows installed go into windows and turn the wireless off then back on before booting ubuntu.
In ubuntu I recommend also trying fn + f1-f12 one at a time and see if one of those key combinations turn it on.
One special case the keys that turn wireless on and off was not the expected key. A recent case was not Fn+f12; it was Alt+F12 that activated the wireless so try that as well then check with:
to see if the hardblock is gone also watch for the wireless light to come on.Code:rfkill list all
Thanks
I tried to do all the fn+f1-12 commands, and the alt+f1-12 commands, but none of them worked.

Hi,Look at your Power Plan options. Under Advanced options it may be set to turn off wireless to save battery power.
under windows..
control panel..
power options...

even though ubuntu is a different os, windows may have a bit set high on your
controller board . change that setting and see if it helps.

Hi, I asked earlier if you have windows installed but I do not believe you said if you do try what I recommended in a previous post.
Thanks
