Internet both wireless and wired were working fine in 10.04. Now after upgrade, the internet manager icon attempts connections but nothing ever connects.

The upgrade was going on in the middle of the night. I did get internet working with a plugin wifi USB device, but my regular hard wired and installed wifi card doesn't work. Here is the syslog.

Don't know if it will help, but around line #1057 it says (wlan1): unable to read permanent MAC address (error 0) and there are plenty of wifi lines after that as well.

Any way to fix this?
