I have pasted the details in the call, but not sure if you still have it "OPEN" Best Regards John Elliott. > modules-cw-3.8-precise-generic" > Date: Fri, 8 Nov 2013 17:43:43 +0000 > From: seth.forshee...@canonical.com > To: johnelliot...@hotmail.com > Subject: [Bug 1248485] Re: No wireless connection after updates 12.04LTS > > I can come up with no explanation why it would have been working before. > That kernel doesn't have support for your wireless hardware. > > You've got a few options for getting it working.
