I had the Wireless Broadband working. It stopped working after I closed the laptop (suspend). Also the wifi will not connect until reboot. Now the entry for the Wireless Broadband is gone, and the tab for it is greyed out as well. Any assistance would be appreciated. I would be happy to submit this as a bug and assist with the debugging process.
So you have a Gobi wireless broadband card (cellular) and you also have a wi-fi card?
Models and drivers of both would be appreciated.
On the wi-fi half of things, close the lid (killing the wi-fi), reopen, and post the output of
ifconfig -a
The wifi is acting normally now, so not a problem anymore. The 3g is still unusable… which is sad. When it worked it was much faster than under Windows, and I would like to reduce my need for Windows.
