I have been unable to use the wireless adapter on my laptop since
installing Fedora 15. When using the network dialog from Gnome 3's
System Settings, The wireless is listed as "Unavailable" but the MAC
address is displayed. Also the Airplane Mode is "On". Any suggestions on what I need to do to get Fedora 15 to use my wireless adapter? Is anyone else having similar problems? My laptop is running 64 bit Fedora 15, Gnome 3 and has an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230 wireless/bluetooth adapter. I am not seeing the bluetooth adapter either. Also, what is this new "Airplane Mode" that I cannot disable for very long. It keeps coming back on by itself. Is the Airplane Mode blocking transmissions from the laptop or is it only reporting that none are being sent? This laptop was originally installed with Windows 7 and the wireless adapter worked fine. Looking at dmesg, I can see that the Wireless adapter is detected and it looks like the fiirmware was loaded.
