<PRE>Le 19/10/2012 23:12, jpbfree a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> same problem here with a HP laptop.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> # lspcidrake -v | grep Wireless
</I>&gt;<i> wl              : Broadcom Corporation|BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless 
</I>&gt;<i> LAN Controller [NETWORK_OTHER] (vendor:14e4 device:4727 subv:103c 
</I>&gt;<i> subd:1483) (rev: 01)
</I>&gt;<i> btusb           : Broadcom Corp|Broadcom 2070 Bluetooth 
</I>&gt;<i> [Wireless|Radio Frequency|Bluetooth] (vendor:0a5c device:21b4)
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> in addition i cannot have a wireless connection when configure through 
</I>&gt;<i> the gui,with or without network manager (no problem when configuring 
</I>&gt;<i> with the wireless tools from the cmdline) and as  author said no 
</I>&gt;<i> automatic reconection; even after a suspend to ram.
</I>&gt;<i> and the network icon disapeared from the taskbar (KDE)
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> # uname -a
</I>&gt;<i> Linux localhost.localdomain 3.6.2-desktop-1.mga3 #1 SMP Wed Oct 17 
</I>&gt;<i> 20:45:11 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I have also to say that my usb mouse doesn't survive a suspend/resume 
</I>&gt;<i> (i have to unplug and replug it)!
</I>&gt;<i> no problem with the touchpad though.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> JPB
</I>more on that.
If that can help narrowing down the problem here is what I did
(just after a reboot; wireless interface not working).

***nota:
I noticed that the interface name for the wireless card changed upon 
reboots !
It may be one of eth0, eth1 or even wlan0 ?
