[Bug 882779] Re: WLAN card cannot be activated, it is hard-rfkill-ed and fn-f2 does not work

 

Hi Jeff, I think it's better to file a new bug for your platform as the
hardware is different from the original bug. Having said that, please
check BIOS for any settings related to wireless and make sure they are
sane. Please also try the BIOS settings for restoring to factory
default.
