Have you reported a bug to Ubuntu?

Wireless disabled usually means a kill switch is active.  You can check 
the status of the system's kill switches by opening a terminal and 
running the command "rfkill list".

Not sure about the Wired Networks without seeing more information about 
your system ( that's why reporting a bug is a better avenue than this 
list ).
