[Bug 274687] [NEW] wireless problems

[ebi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I am running hardy heron 8.04 not the alternative on a dell inspiron
8600 and use firefox 3.0.2

there are no visible wireless controls in my panel display using the internal wireless, however when I plug in
Netgear WG511T 108Mbps 32-bit wireless card the icon that looks like two terminals changes and shows signal strength. If I click the icon with the card in I can see other wireless networks to choose from. With the card all I see is the icon that looks like two terminals and hovering my mouse over the icon it says Manual network configuration and when I right click it, it displays these options; Enable networking with a checkmark in front of it; next option has a round icon then says Connection Information but cannot be choosen; then Edit Wireless networks; then last ...another round icon with the word About. Left click produces a radio button with the words Wired Network next to it but that is not choosable it is light grey; then Manual Confirguration

Here is some info from the terminal I think you  might want. When I got
this the card was removed.
