Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox

Hello All

A few weeks ago my HP lap top's wireless connection was fine with Ubuntu 9.10. I installed updates a few days before Ubuntu 10.04 came out. Thats when the different routers ( mine and the 3 or 4 others in the neighborhood disappeared form the wireless pull down menu. I have not been able to connect to my Netgear router since. (I could and can connect with a wire.)

I tried a reinstall of the router. (Reinstalling the WEB Key) No luck.

So I installed Ubuntu 10.04 hoping that would recognize the routers again. No luck.

One of the local Linux experts at wlug said I should report the bug.  I thought the next update would include the fix. 2 or 3 updates later my computer does not recognize the router.

I have very limited experience with computers. Please help.
