Public bug reported:

When I disable wifi with the button on the netbook enclosure (acer a150)
it takes quite sometime before it actually stops working (about a
minute). Enabling it afterwards is not working at all. I have to boot
windows to get it to enable again and than reboot in ubuntu again.

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> 
About Ubuntu.
Karmic koala (did a dist-upgrade 5 minutes ago)

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy packagename' 
or by checking in Synaptic.
I have tried linux-backport-drivers but this didn't make any difference.

3) What you expected to happen
To enable/disable wifi instantly

4) What happened instead
See above
