[William Walter Kinghorn]

Hi Ray,

I was reading the comments, Pádraic says go to this on ubuntuforums : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1745681&page=3

Possibly wireless is disabled by hardware switch, in Ubuntu 11.04

I have tried all the advice on the Network to get 11.04 to interact with the wireless network.  I installed 11.04 side by side with 10.04.  The latter worked perfectly with downloaded Broadcom 43 drivers.  I am at my wits end and almost at the point of abandoning 11.04 as a waste of time after about 2 weeks of battling.
