Version: 1.4.2-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I dont know exactly the causes
Sometimes when I connect to my home network by example (wlan)
after I turn off my notebook so when I turn on the notebook in other place and
connect to another (in my school by example) it happen.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I have tried
rfkill unblock all
sometimes combinations of this sequence as appropiate
service networking stop/start
service network-manager stop/start
/etc/init.d/network-manager stop/start
ifconfig wlan0 down/up
iwconfig wlan0 txpower auto/off
rmmod ath5k
modprobe ath5k
* What was the outcome of this action?
with rfkill nothing happen, it remains
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
with
service networking stop/start
service network-manager stop/start
/etc/init.d/network-manager stop/start
ifconfig wlan0 down/up
iwconfig wlan0 txpower auto/off
rmmod ath5k
modprobe ath5k
sometimes it works, sometimes not, just freezes after run modprobe
ath5k, I put the physical switch of the wireless in off and the system
unfreezes but the wireless device is unusable
the solution is shut down completely the system and turn on the notebook
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Use the device for the wireless network you are going to use anywhere,
anytime

Ok, closing the bug report against NetworkManager then.
