I believe this is a network manager bug. If iwconfig can detect that the interface is wireless (which it can when this occurs) then network manager should recognize this as well. I know that when it happens on my machine, there's two things that make be believe this:
1) The "wired" interface(s) it shows are actually the names of the wireless ESSID's 2) Reloading the driver(s) (including ieee80211) for my bcm43xx doesn't fix it. This seems to be irrelevant to the card being used. Two other ubuntu developers noticed this problems as well, and they are using different chips/drivers than myself (and even the submitter). ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.17 (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: linux-source-2.6.17 => network-manager -- After resume, thinks my wireless network is wired https://launchpad.net/bugs/57501 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
