I have a Dell Inspiron 15N laptop that I upgraded to Natty.  After the upgrade my wireless did not work.  In fact, it did not even see the wireless.  lshw showed the wireless as "unassigned".  I went wired and completely removed KNetworkManager and installed WICD.  That changed nothing.  What is it about (K)Ubuntu that the developers are against wifi???  The worst part is that if I operate the button that turns on the WIFI equipment, I get a notification that it has been turned off, and, if I then turn it back on, I get a notification that it is turned on.  What is that????
Why can't they get it right and leave it alone.
Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
