wifi HW switch does not work in linux

[erzinho]

Hello, I'm having an issue with the HW wifi switch. I already posted my problem into HP support forums, but they suggested me to post my problem here, so I just copy-paste the original message:

Hi, I have an issue with the hardware wifi switch in linux OS, the LED signalizes it's constantly on, but when I want to turn wifi off because I am using ethernet, I have to do that manually in OS, because the switch does nothing. Any ideas where the problem might be? (in MS Windows 7 Pro everything works perfectly)

 

product: HP probook 6470b

os: Fedora 19-32bit-MATE

wireless module: BCM43228

I really appreciate any help you can provide
