I have installed both Windows and SUSE Linux (11.4) on my Dell Inspiron 14r laptop. Both are working properly.
I am facing one strange problem.
I went to my Linux OS WiFi was working fine and I pressed fn+f2 in-order to disable WiFi.
WiFi got disable successfully but when I again pressed fn+f2 it is not enabling WiFi.
I can see WiFi disabled. Instead of that bluetooth icon got enable.
Then I switched to Windows and again pressed fn+f2 and WiFi got enabled.
Then I switched to Linux OS and I can see my WiFi enabled.
Again I pressed fn+f2 and it got disabled and I'm not able to enable it by pressing fn+f2 again.
How can I enable WiFi on SUSE (11.4)?

As a preliminary step, check yourjournaloutput and/or logs to see what happens when you press Fn + F2; I'm assuming your wifi connection isn't handled byNetworkManageror something similar, which would bind the interface automatically to your wifi-AP when it's brought back up.

if thewlan0interface is showing up already upon execution ofifconfig, then the above command won't have an effect on it--since it's alreadyup!

The same thing just happened to me...
check this:
~# iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
ok then do this:
~# dhclient wlan0
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
cancel it if it take too long.
and do it again:
~# iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0 Scan completed :
