Hi! my notebook has the same wireless card/chip. I don't have the problem as you, but I also don't boot into windows (it's not here). Since I found the workaround with module unloading I was never required to reboot the system to get wireless working.
with lucid, try using the notebooks wireless key + check the status with rfkill list all and maybe execute rfkill unblock all sometimes (always check the status with rfkill list after each operation). hth, jürgen Am Donnerstag 06 Mai 2010, um 17:14:11 schrieben Sie: > Hi guys, > My question is little bit off-topic but I want to take this opportunity to > ask you since you have the same Dell Studio 1557 laptop. > > My Wifi (Intel 5300) doesn't work every other reboot.
