I'll chime with another me too. BCM4306 rev.03 doesn't work. Doesn't show networks in KNetworkManager, doesn't connect to manually configured AP. It's screwed up.

After my last report, I removed all packages associated with broadcom4306 and then re-installed from source following the instructions at http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 Since then my wireless has been working better than any time since I installed hardy (beta4), not dropping out much at all.

Interestingly, my wireless fails completely now. I think this might be since the last kernel upgraded (to 2.6.24-17).

Actually not. b43 being blacklisted it isn't loaded at startup (I verified it) On the contrary I unload bcm43xx load b43 unload b43 and then load again bcm43xx It seems to me that b43 does some kind of initialisation which allows iwlist scanning to work but not to associate with an AP.

That is what is bug report is talking about. We *know* bcm43xx is working... bcm43xx is now deprecated and will be removed in future kernels. The way you load or unload b43 or bcm43xx is irrelevant. The problem remains the same : some wireless cards are unable to associate with their AP in kernel 2.6.24.

Originally, I had the same problem - Dmesg reported that with b43 and the correct firmware installed, using network-manager to try to connect to my WPA protected network, the attempts to associate with the access point would repeatedly time out.

Sorry for the double post, didn't figure out how to (if it's possible) edit a comment. Something pretty strange just happened to me.

Hello Guys: I did some sniffing around the B43 mailing list and found a lengthy thread about the ASUS WL-138G v2, which uses Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev2). It seems that Asus mucked with the registers (sorry if I am using the wrong wording). There is a patch for 2.6.26 kernel but it is more of detect this ID then do something specific.. What it boils down to is that Asus enabled some Bluetooth interference trigger that is causing B43 kernel module to freak out and that is why it is timing out. Here it he patch for whoever is interested. Just remember, it is for 2.6.26 kernel http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/bcm43xx- dev/2008-April/007330.html. Also the entire thread if very interesting and worth a read. You can get it here http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/bcm43xx-dev/2008-April/007312.html I am not going to fart around with this card any more.

Hello: I have an ASUS WL-138G V2 PCI wireless card with the following lspci stamp: 02:07.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) When I load B43 (have the b43-fwcutter) firmware all installed, I keep getting the dreaded: Apr 10 14:19:29 hero kernel: [ 115.595095] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:06:25:f6:ed:f8 Apr 10 14:19:29 hero kernel: [ 115.794734] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:06:25:f6:ed:f8 Apr 10 14:19:30 hero kernel: [ 115.994576] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:06:25:f6:ed:f8 Apr 10 14:19:30 hero kernel: [ 116.194421] wlan0: authentication with AP 00:06:25:f6:ed:f8 timed out after trying WEP, WPA2 Personal and open network, I decided to go back to BCM43xxx (old driver). I installed the firware and now my card works fine over an open network. WEP secured network is really slow. This is much better than B43 kernel module. BTW, I removed b43 and ssd modules. Kernel using is: Linux hero 2.6.24-15-generic #1 SMP Tue Apr 8 00:33:51 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux This was a fresh install from the Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Beta CD with all the updates as of 22:49 UTC (April 10) Hope this helps -- bcm4306, bcm4309, bcm4311, bcm4312 with b43 : Authentification with AP doesn't work. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182716 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
