Adam Porter, this bug did indeed first appear in Natty and up to the
last time I installed 13.04 on my Dell Inspiron 1501 with 4311 hardware,
was the same problem.  The STA drivers selected for the install don't
work with the 4311 ie there is no working wireless adapter visible in
the system.  The same fix has also worked since then, which is
uninstalling the STA driver and installing the b43 driver.

I cannot personally vouch for the original workaround proposed which was
downgrading the STA version.

I have looked at the comments for the bug you mention, namely 1097519
and there seems to be a lively dispute the "correct" solution for this
problem.  Also the people involved in that discussion seem to be working
with 4313 devices.

Therefore I respectfully suggest that moving this bug to Invalid status
is premature or perhaps incorrect.
