我用的Distribution是SUSE，昨天上网发现无线网络突然扫描不了，在命令行下输入iwconfig wlan0
得到的结果为：
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
这个信息说明任何无线都无法被扫描到。
查了很多资料都不知道是什么原因。
输入命令/etc/init.d/network restart
得到的结果为：

注意，上面的信息中有一个异常：wlan0 DHCP6 continues in background waiting
进到图形界面的“网络设置”中的“全局选项”，如下图所示：
发现图中的“启用IPv6”选项被勾起来了。把该选项前面的勾去掉，无线网络恢复可以为正常扫描。
问题解决！
