In fact I can bring up the interface using "ip link set wlan0 up" but this leads me to another question: I fail to see how restart the interface automatically when rfkill switch is turned off. The expected behaviour in this case should be, imho, that wpa_supplicant wakes up and restarts the connection. IIRC netplug doesn't work with wireless connections and this leaves me wondering how I can have wireless la to wake up after turning off rfkill switch :) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
