We did not disable suspend before testing, all these observations were made on a fresh boot while plugged into AC power with no suspending. The wireless just didn't seem to activate at all. When checking 'ifconfig -a' the only device shown was the local loopback device 'lo'.<br>

</div><div class="im">You probably hit the known problem described in the release candidate<br>
announcement "If you have a B2 without hardware mods, you must disable<br>
suspend using Control Panel->Power->Automatic power management, else<br>
your wireless device will disconnect on suspend and not come back until<br>
the next reboot."<br>
<br>
Can you confirm that you did not disable suspend before testing<br>
wireless?<br>
