If I turn on airplane mode, or if for any reason I turn off the wifi it will fail to turn on again and I'll have to reboot the system. I have tried to turn it on via terminal but it also fails to do so. Sometimes the connection fails out of the blue and I have to reboot the system to have it back. Here's some information on my Ethernet controller: cleber@Rebuitti-Kubuntu:~$ lspci -nnk | grep net -A2 03:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX [14e4:170c] (rev 02) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:01f1] Kernel driver in use: b44 cleber@Rebuitti-Kubuntu:~$ Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. click on the wireless icon on the taskbar 2. Deactivate Wifi or Activate Airplane mode 3. Undo the last step Actual Results: The Wifi is turned off, but never comes back again. Even through terminal commands. Expected Results: It should have tuned of my wireless connection and then when I turned it on again, it should reconnect or give me the option to chose another WiFi.
