the last few day when i turn my laptop off win 7 stops seeing my broadcom wifi on my HP laptop
cant figger out whats making it do that.
i scan for new hardware etc and it doesnt pic it up.
after a few reboot it sometime finds it and installs the drivers and were fine again till i reboot.
i dont think it a faulty wifi card

It might have something to do with either something in the power profile, or a setting in the wifi config, called wake on....lan
