sudo modprobe wl? Root issue? x86 64-bit
<p>I'm using ubuntu 9.10 w/ ndiswrapper as wireless driver. After each reboot I am forced to run the command 'sudo modprobe wl', however I am not certain what I lack that it is not detecting the wireless device automatically. I could certainly add some commands in the .profile shell script to run this automatically but I feel like there is a larger issue just under the surface which needs addressed. </p>
<p>Sometimes after lots of downloading the wireless connection seems to die, not that it looses connectivity via the gui or that disconnecting and reconnecting make any difference. To get a good wireless connection again I have to reboot the machine and re-enter 'sudo modprobe wl'.</p>
<p>Anyone have thoughts?</p>
