Re: "Wireless is disabled" message
I never received a reply when I sent my details, so I changed my network manager to WICD and everything worked straight away. I didn't want to because it's very aggressive (it deletes all other network managers before it installs and the user interface doesn't have as many features) but WICD's allowed me to connect to everything without any problems.

Re: "Wireless is disabled" message
Hi all, I also met this problem. The root cause maybe different. Below is my findings in my case. When the problem occur, the dbus call val = _nm_object_get_boolean_property (NM_OBJECT (client), NM_DBUS_INTERFACE, "WirelessHardwareEnabled"); in function nm-clent.c - update_wireless_status() failed. This problem happen when the NetworkManager daemon is busy with another dbus call and do not return. This only happened when NetworkManager first start. When the problem occur, restart the nm-applet can fix this. It seems some daemon dbus call(with supplicant? driver issue?) too long block the nm-applet dbus call and make it fail? To fix this, I simply comment the nm-applet codes about check this because my device do not have killswitch. Of course the fix is just for my device^_^. 2009/5/20 Thomas O'Donoghue > UPDATE: When the hardware switch is turned to "off" then the messages are > the same.

Re: "Wireless is disabled" message
Cheers for your reply, Stuart. I followed the instructions on the link you sent, but it's still the same. I think the computer's supported the card all along (and it worked when the laptop had windoze installed) but I can't enable wireless (see pic in this thread, a screenshot from a while back: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1151646#post7230668).

Re: "Wireless is disabled" message
No, I never suspend or hibernate my computer (it doesn't work: another problem to fix later!). To summarise: My computer acknowledges the existence of the wireless cards, but it won't let me connect to the internet via wireless (see pic in this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1151646). When my laptop arrived with windows on, the external (belkin) wireless card picked up the internet. The intel wireless card doesn't work. The person in the linked conversation had exactly the same problem, and the solution he arrived at in the thread he started in Fedora Forums was: "After not getting answers in this forum i inquired at the NetworkManager mailing list, and got the above information. I was told that NetworkManager code "honors" and checks the HAL killswitch, with no user option to make it NOT honor it (software author's decision). however, the author(s) were kind enough to share a quick hack of the source code to disable the honoring of the killswitch, which worked like a charm, making NetworkManager detect and control my removable WiFi card." If it helps, I'm using Linux Mint. The first time I plugged in the wireless card it acknowledged it and set up the drivers for it, which is why I think it's Network Manager which believes the wireless kill switch to be "off" when it is in fact hooked up to a defective wireless device. I did read somewhere that Network Manager honours the kill switch, and uses it for ALL network devices rather than allowing control of individual devices. I think there's a clear argument that the downstream user should be able to enable and disable individual devices, in the event they have a problem like mine.

I found out about this list through the forum mentioned in the following thread: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2008-September/msg00256.html and appear to have the same problem. The person appealed to you guys and seemed to get a fix: I looked through the messages, but was unable to deduce what that fix was. I have the same problem (my internal Intel wireless card doesn't work, so I think the computer automatically assumes that the wireless switch is set to "off"). I'm using an external card, but cannot enable wireless to use it. Could you please help, as I've exhausted 3 forums and every google search term I can think of!
