Public bug reported: My laptop has two wireless cards. the internal intel card and the external pcmcia Dynex (Broadcom) card. There is a power switch to turn off the internal wireless card to save the battery. But when I turn off the internal card the network manager is also disabling the pcmcia card at the same time.
Expected: The pcmcia wireless card should remain enabled when the internal wireless card is turned off. Except for this problem, both wireless cards are working.
