I had wireless working well with ndiswrapper on FC4 on my laptop. I
installed FC6 on other partitions, made an unsuccessful attempt to
configure wireless with BCM43xx. When I rebooted into FC4, wireless had
stopped working. I've tried unloading and reloading the module, deleting
and reinstalling the driver. Nothing has seemed to work. One thing I
find curious and I have illustrated below, I cannot change parameters
with iwconfig. Can someone offer insight into what I might have done to
screw up my wireless and what I can do to fix it? (The wireless network
is working because my wife's PowerBook is working fine.)
Thanks!

I had a similar problem with my HP Pavilion (zv6015). I used the
hardware wireless button to disable the wireless NIC under Windoze when
I first got the system since I didn't have anything to connect it to
wirelessly. Once I got Linux installed and an AP, I was unable to bring
the radio up until I booted the system to Windoze and hit the wireless
switch. Not sure if you could have somehow had this happen when running
FC6. This is completely a shot in the dark.
Cheers,
Dave
