Question #44829 on Ubuntu Eee changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/44829

    Status: Open => Answered

Menny proposed the following answer:
I did it!!!!
The problem was in  /etc/acpi/eeepc-wireless-toggle.sh file.
Here the correct version. The problem was in case condition, it set, wrongly, to 1 (on) the wlan control file when the wifi is 0 (off).
The same thing when wlan is 1 (on), it write the opposite state 0 (off).
Mmmm maybe I'm little confused about that...anyway, it works.
I'e thought that the purpose off this file was to put 0 into /proc/acpi/asus/wlan file when the wifi card is turned off,
viceversa it put a 1 in the same file when the wifi is turned on (with Fn+f2)

Hope this can be helpfull

bye

Menny

--------here the file------------------

#!/bin/sh

wlan_control=/proc/acpi/asus/wlan

WLANSTATE=$(cat $wlan_control)

case $WLANSTATE in
	0)
		modprobe ath_pci
		echo 0 > $wlan_control
		;;
	1)
		ifconfig ath0 down
		modprobe -r ath_pci
		echo 1 > $wlan_control
		;;
esac
