No WLAN on Samsung NC-10

[Akagi]

Hello,

I have the problem that my Samsung NC-10 netbook can no longer connect itself to my WLAN router. I don't use this one on a regular base, but the last successfull connection was 11 days ago.

This is strange, because my Lenovo T-500 with the same Ubuntu version works perfectly. I can also see the connection attempt in the web interface of my WLAN router: The MAC address and signal strength are shown.

I use the network manager applet to connect. I deleted the WLAN settings several times and created new ones - without success. Also a restart of the WLAN router does not help.

I use a Ubuntu 9.04 UNR.

I will add the lspci and dmesg dump immediately.

Thanks in advance!

Minor update.

An activation of the WLAN connection via the installed Windows XP fixes this error. It does not appeared since then. Maybe it has something to do with the deactivation of the WLAN network via the network-manager-applet.

Can you reproduce the problem?

If not, we should change the Status to Invalid.

what chipset driver is that using? isnt that atheros? ath9k or ath5k?
