I did all the updates, I believe some were kernel updates. After reboot I have no WiFi. I was using madwifi and under Hardware drivers there is nothing listed now? How do I get the wifi back?

Let get some log output!
in the terminal type:
unplug and replug the card and post what you see in the log.Code:sudo tail -f /var/log/messages
Code:pccard: card ejected from slot 0 pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
I'm in the same boat as you with my wife's laptop. If I find the solution for this new kernel I will post it. In the mean time, using the old kernel continues to work
the card is a D-Link DWA-652 Xtreme N
lspci :
Atheros Communications Inc. AR5416 802.11abgn Wireless PCI Adapter (rev 01)
do a:
If it does not give you any output do:Code:lsmod |grep ath9k
see if anything shows up in /var/log/debug /var/log/syslog /var/log/messagesCode:modprobe ath9k
you can also just boot into the previous kernel.
Code:lsmod |grep ath9k generated no outputI have yet to check the log files you mentioned.Code:modprobe ath9k WARNING: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer line 26: ignoring bad line starting with 'vesafb' FATAL: Module ath9k not found.
Not sure what version you are running, but this happened to me too. I updated last night and my wifi went down. I think it is fixed already, but I am at work and haven't been able to update again. Check this thread out....

I had the same issue with my laptop. After I would update the kernel I would have to reload my drivers. I wrote this guide for my laptop. But I know that works with other version of the card(ARXXXX)
