Removed the default package for Debian 8 and installed the broadcom-sta-dkms package from https://wiki.debian.org/wl and after reloading the kernel the broadcom driver seems to have trouble routing ipv4 traffic. ICMP on the LAN works but fails to route beyond Internet gateway. Wired NIC works fine on same machine. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I have proven other hosts and wired NIC on problem host are working fine. * What was the outcome of this action? Outcome was improved latency and network speed with the driver and package update however ipv4 routing has failed beyond the LAN. * What outcome did you expect instead? I expected improved wireless performance with no routing issues. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Distributor ID: Kali Description:Kali GNU/Linux Rolling Release:kali-rolling Codename: kali-rolling Architecture: x86_64 Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-kali1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages broadcom-sta-dkms depends on: ii dkms 2.2.0.3-5 Versions of packages broadcom-sta-dkms recommends: ii wireless-tools 30~pre9-11 broadcom-sta-dkms suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
