Dell XPS 13 with Centrino 6230 won't connect to WIFI
I have recently started using Ubuntu 12.04 (with Wubi) on a Dell XPS 13 with an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230. I installed Ubuntu while logged into the wifi network at my school, and everything went fine. I could also log in to my home wifi network with no problems using Ubuntu on the XPS. A couple of days later, I had to restart the XPS in windows to access something that I couldn't get to with the Ubuntu installation. When I rebooted the computer back into Ubuntu, I couldn't connect to my home wifi network. I went back to school, reinstalled Ubuntu, and had the exact same problem the next week. The wifi worked great at school and at home until I had to reboot into Windows, and from then on I could not access wifi in Ubuntu. I am pretty sure it has something to do with the wireless card, as I have plugged in a USB wifi card (Netgear) and I can access my home wifi. I thought maybe it was a driver issue, but that doesn't explain why it worked until I restarted the computer. I am stumped. I would appreciate any thoughts or advice...
