I updated it last time around March, before switching the laptop from
Windows to Ubuntu. I will check the update utility if they have any
updates for it when I can boot to Windows (they don't show BIOS updates
on their website, only utility versions).

This bug happens with Raring as well. I will check tomorrow if it
happens on Saucy.

Title:
  14e4:4727 [Samsung NP-RF511-S03SE] wifi stops working when laptop lid
  is closed

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 12.10, when I close the laptop lid, the wlan connection is
  closed. Wired (ethernet) connections keep working normally.

  This prevents using only external monitor in places where wired
  connections are not accessible and forces the user to keep the laptop
  display on even if it is not needed.

  Changing the power manager settings to "Do nothing" does not affect
  this. It also does not matter if the laptop is plugged in or not.

  Looking at this discussion, it seems this problem has existed at least
  from Ubuntu 8.04, and Kubuntu is affected as well:

  Apparently, at some point, disabling the screen saver would fix this issue. However, there is no such setting on Ubuntu 12.10.
