Broadcom Wireless Networking Adapters and Linux. There has been quite a bit of discussion and celebration in the Linux community recently because Broadcom released an open-source driver.

I have been struggling to get the Wireless LAN (BCM4311) working on my Dell Inspiron E1405 with Linux Mint 15 from a live USB. I have access to internet, the wired connection works fine.

Tried so many tips from Linux forum, with no luck so far. Touchpad Drivers Vista here. I have not installed Linux on the HDD, as I am worried the WLAN may not work at all after installation.

I have Windows XP for my regular use, trying to get Linux work before I intend to install it on the HDD. Driver Hp Laserjet P10006 Download. Any help in solving the WLAN detection/connectivity problem will be highly appreciated. Running Mint 15 in my MacBook Pro 13″ (mid 2012) I’ve been using the bcmwl-kernel-source for the Broadcom 4331 wlan chipset. All the time I’ve only had problems to connect to one single wireless network, everything else just worked fine, except a bunch of error messages in syslog. Then, I upgraded (fresh install) to Mint 16 using the Broadcom drivers from the package manager again. But this time, my connections began to become laggy after a few minutes and so I tried your solution from above. Hp Ilo 4 Keygen Photoshop.

But this also doesn’t really work for me, because on one hand I’m not able to see 5GHz and/or 802.1n networks anymore and on the other hand after a few minutes the network manager doesn’t show the wireless networks around except the one I’m connected to, and this one has a connectivity of 0%. Pinging the gateway is not working, too.

Hi, and thanks – can i just ask, as a noob:: i’d already found this solution on the web: sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source broadcom-sta-common broadcom-sta-source && sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer and it seems to have worked as i’m now seeing WiFi signals with sudo iwlist wlan0 scan but i wonder how your solution compares to this – are they wildly different? (Still can’t actually find a way in the Mint 15 UI to list the WiFi signals and let me choose one to connect to – please tell me I don’t have to keep typing runes to make this happen?!) best, & thanks, nick.
