"Enable Wi-Fi" disappears from network menu when ThinkPenguin's wireless USB ethernet adapter loses connection

In order to free up some ethernet lines on my router, I got a ThinkPenguin.com USB wireless ethernet adapter. It works OK, but my FIOS connection is flaky, and the wireless ethernet connection gets dropped frequently (on other PC's too). This is probably not ThinkPenguin's fault, but in order to regain my wireless connection, I have to move the USB wireless adapter to another USB port on my Trisquel 7 installation.
If there were an "Enable W-Fi" menu item still there in my Networking menu, this would be no big deal, but that item disappears from the network menu when the wireless connection gets dropped, and it doesn't reappear until I move that USB wireless adapter to another port.
Is there a Trisquel 7 command or application that can maintain that menu item for me ?
what wifi card are you using i read
and learned from experience
that the wireless N card
dose not tend work well with older computers
but the wireless G card works very well on old
and new
also have you tried one of these
to get more Ethernet ports
i use them with my web-servers

i got myn much cheaper than this though
My ISP gave me a Motorola Surfboard modem/router combo and it hates the Think Penguin adapter in both GNU/Linx and Windows 7. It would be nice that I could eventually use my own router.
