Can't you just use the switch on the side of the laptop to turn ON the wireless when you want it?
In the USA all laptops with embedded wireless nics have to have a switch so they can be turned off on airplanes. Lots of people don't know what its for, but its always there.
Are you absolutely sure? There no such switch on my IBM Thinkpad R51e. /Per Jessen, Zürich
