I have a small old netbook I wanted to breath life into. I'm not sure what specifically is needed. It's an Acer Aspire with an Intel Atom Processor, 1 GB ram, 8 GB ssd (yes only 8). I originally had a Fedora xfce spin on it and decided to take a chance on Lubuntu for a change. I decided to opt for the Lubuntu LTS 14.0.4.1 version. I'm not completely new to linux as I said, but never used Ubuntu/Lubuntu or any debian-based Linux before. I doubt that's relevant. The issue is, unlike when I had Fedora, as easy and wonderful and beautiful as the new Lubuntu is, my Wifi light is going constantly. I turned off updates entirely because I thought it was wasting bandwidth and my precious small SSD space. That did nothing, so I tried sudo iftop -i wlan0 and saw essentially nothing going on...(occasional DNS entry comes up but thats it)...iftop seems a bit more descriptive than I'm interested in, but from what I can tell, it's showing that there's nothing going on, yet the light continues to blink. I don't want to permanently turn off the wifi light - I just need it to only blink to tell me if there's something happening - if it's downloading or not. I've done a google search, and all I can find is <a href="http://www.tomdesair.com/blog/2012/04/stop-the-blinking-wireless-led-in-linux/" target="_blank">Stop the blinking wireless LED in Linux</a> but I don't want to disable it entirely and it appears that's what this does. I'd just like it to only blink when necessary. Thank you in advance.<br></div><div style="width:450px;font-family:"Georgia","Times","Times New Roman","serif";margin-top:5px;margin-bottom:5px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><table style="width:450px;height:170px;display:block" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td style="height:1px;font-size:1px;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)" colspan="8"><div style="min-height:1px;line-height:0px;font-size:1px;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)"> </div></td></tr><tr><td style="width:1px;font-size:1pt;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)" rowspan="5"><div style="width:1px;font-size:1pt;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)"> </div></td><td style="width:168px;height:168px;vertical-align:middle;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(0,0,0)" rowspan="5"><div align="center" style="width:168px"><a style="color:rgb(0,0,0)!important;text-decoration:none!important" href="http://www.tomdesair.com/blog/2012/04/stop-the-blinking-wireless-led-in-linux/" target="_blank"><img width="168" height="168" style="margin:auto;display:block" alt="image" src="https://s0.wp.com/i/blank.jpg"></a></div></td><td style="width:1px;font-size:0pt;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)" rowspan="5"><div style="width:1px;font-size:1pt;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)"> </div></td><td style="width:14px;font-size:0pt;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)" rowspan="5"><div style="width:14px;font-size:14pt;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"> </div></td><td style="height:6px;font-size:0pt;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)" colspan="2"><div style="min-height:6px;font-size:6pt;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"> </div></td><td style="width:20px;font-size:0pt;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)" rowspan="5"><div style="width:20px;font-size:20pt;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"> </div></td><td width="1" style="width:1px;font-size:1pt;border-collapse:collapse;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)" rowspan="5"><div style="width:1px;font-size:1pt;background-color:rgb(229,229,229)"> </div></td></tr><tr><td style="width:100%;font-family:"Georgia","Times","Times New Roman","serif";vertical-align:middle" colspan="2"><div style="width:245px;min-height:135px;line-height:16.5px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><div><span></span><span></span><a style="color:rgb(0,0,0)!important;line-height:100%;font-size:18px;text-decoration:none!important;display:block" href="http://www.tomdesair.com/blog/2012/04/stop-the-blinking-wireless-led-in-linux/" target="_blank"><span style="margin:0px 0px 3px;color:rgb(0,0,0);line-height:21px;overflow:hidden!important;font-size:18px;font-weight:normal;display:inline-block;max-height:43px">Stop the blinking wireless LED in Linux</span></a><div style="color:rgb(153,153,153);line-height:20px;overflow:hidden;font-family:"Georgia","Times","Times New Roman","serif";font-size:13px;max-height:81px">I've recently had some problems with the wireless LED of my laptop in Linux.
