11.04 - Intel Wifi Link 5100 and Realtek 8188SU disabled
Hi,
I am trying to solve my wireless network woes on a brand new install of 11.04.
These are the commands and outputs that I have run (found from similar forums) and I am hoping get some incite since my situation is a bit different from others that I have seen in regards to the outputs (specifically rfkill list)
I have a external usb (Realtek 8188SU) and an internal (Intel Wifi Link 5100) which are both disabled. I have used the Intel in the past I think with 10.10 or maybe it was 10.04
Here is the terminal:
