Tried installing wicd with no luck. Not only no luck but with wicd I
couldn't turn on the xciever. At one time wicd wouldn't play nice w/ NM.
IIRC this is no longer true. Can anyone confirm?

I just purged wicd and NM fired up my wireless connection w/ no problem.
I'll see how long it lasts.

FWIW I'm running Wheezy fully updated w/ fxce4 DE.

Well, that didn't last long. Wireless ran fine until this AM when it
died and won't restart. As before, ethernet is fine. I'm floundering
here and could use a hand. Not sure what areas to research. Anyone have
any ideas?

Can you unload and reload the wireless module using modprobe?


Hi Robert,

I recall having a similar problem with the wifi with Squeeze. I resolved it by disabling ipV6 in the Network Settings.

Hope that helps,
