[Frances Hocutt <frances.hocutt@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just upgraded to the latest version of 14.10. The first time I started
up after upgrade, I couldn't see any networks. After a restart, I was
briefly able to see and connect to my local wireless network. When I
started to load webpages it disconnected, and I was no longer able to
see the network I had been connected to in the network list. I have been
trying disabling and enabling wi-fi from the drop-down menu, but even
when "Enable Wi-Fi" is checked I still see a greyed-out "Wi-Fi is
disabled" line.

I will try restarting again and will see if letting the connection go
for longer before I start trying to move data across it helps.
