Hi

The gnome network manager in Ubuntu 10.04 is crap.

Try installing wicd and see if that cures it

[Problem Solved] :)

here is what I did

Download the b43 zip file to a flash drive then drag and drop the file to your ubuntu desktop.
Right-click it and select Extract Here.
Open a terminal and do:
sudo mkdir /lib/firmware/b43
sudo cp Desktop/b43/* /lib/firmware/b43
sudo rmmod -f b43
sudo rmmod -f ssb
sudo modprobe b43


I now have wifi access to net
