Hi Tormod,

I tried the patches you provided and they seem to work, albeit only for
a couple of seconds. I've replaced the files and the configuration file
for linux-wlan-ng. Upon connecting a Microsoft MN-510 USB devices, the
system recognizes it and enables its wireless functionality. I've
confirmed this through the execution of Network Manager and 'iwconfig'.
After two or three seconds, it appears that the device does its scan for
networks, then the wireless functionality is disabled. The command
'iwconfig' replies indicating no wireless extensions and network manager
thinks that the device is a wired network interface.

I can re-enable the wireless functionality of the device by executing the 
following 'wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_ifstate ifstate=enable'.
Then both the network manager and 'iwconfig' recognize the wireless capability 
of the device.

Any suggestions? I need to configure this for non-expert users that just
need it to work during boot-up and after suspend.

If I try to configure the device with my wireless settings, then the
device loses its wireless capability and becomes a wired device in
network-manager and has no wireless extensions in 'iwconfig'. After
that, nothing works with the USB device; even trying 'wlanctl-ng ...'
described earlier cannot enable the wireless functionality again.
