Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

When the wireless option on this laptop is disabled indicated by the
physical button (at least when pressed manually, though it may have
become that way after a resume from suspend/hibernate), network-manager
via the applet still tries to connect, still lists the last wireless
scan results and give no indication that the connection isn't available.

Perhaps a separate, but closely related bug (already reported?): When
re-enabling wireless via the physical button, network-manager doesn't
appear to resume the network connection. "sudo restart network-manager"
fixes it.

Perhaps a blueprint for adding re-scanning for wireless networks would
be useful too. I know such a feature would help with my network's low
SSID broadcast rate.

Thanks,
