Hi
I am using Fedora 20 and have no problem with my wifi, but some my
friend said some of their hard wares do not work. It depends on your laptop.
I installed Linux (Ubuntu and Fedora) 22 times and finally I found that
all my hard wares work in Fedora 20 correctly. My laptop is Lenovo G510.
Try to search by your wifi model, may you find some useful answers.
Regards
A. Ghaderzadeh

> After installing it is impossible to turn the wifi says "Hardware
disabled", my network card is Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230.To enable and disable
wifi use the FN + F12 key, but does not work (all other function keys work properly). In
windows if you press two times this key activates the wifi, three times activates
bluetooth and four times off everything, both bluetooth and wifi.I have read that a user
disabled the bluetooth from the BIOS and then it worked, but I don't have the option
to disable bluetooth in my BIOS. When I run: rfkill list0: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked:
no Hard blocked: no 1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes Run “rfkill
unblock 1” but does nothing:1: phy0: Wireless LAN Soft blocked: no Hard blocked: yes I
