AR242X wireless turning off during boot of Asus x50r laptop
I have an Asus X50r, which according to windows has an Atheros 5007eg PCI card in.
I am unable to connect to my network, or see any network.
I have a clean install and have followed the instructions from here: https:/
My network manager cannot see any networks, but the drivers seem to be installed okay
iwcongif brings up this:
