I am running on natty beta1. I installed the driver for Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01) using the Additional Drivers tool. the driver is installed, and the link works. However, after a minute or so connection drops. Network manager keeps retrying without any luck. If I disable wireless from network manager, and enable it back. the connection again works for about a minute. Then, the whole cycle repeats. Is there anything I can do to fix it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203819 Title: Broadcom bcm4312 wireless not detected at all -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

There is experimental support for BCM4312 in Ubuntu 10.04 and even should-be-stable in Ubuntu 10.10. Of couse newer versions (11.04, and later) will work as well. For Ubuntu 9.10 and older you need to do one of: 1) install compat-wireless 2) update kernel to 2.6.33 or later 3) install sta AKA wl Ah and if you can see your network device in lspci, it means it *IS* detected.

Leslie, did you see my apport-collect data above? The system has not changed, I'm still running 9.04. "Hardware Drivers" shows "Broadcom STA wireless driver" being in use. I am currently booted into 2.6.28-11. Comparing your lshw and mine, the only real difference is the bus id.

Tracey: is this with Ubuntu 9.04? Does "Hardware Drivers" show anything? I will attach lshw -C network, in case that helps. My steps were: 1. Install Ubuntu 9.04 i386 Desktop (even the live CD had working wireless, Hardware Drivers indicating"Broadcom STA wireless driver") 2.

[Bug 203819] Re: Broadcom bcm4312 wireless not detected at all
Wooh! I got the wireless working! I used Kernel 2.6.32-999-generic and had to download firmware. Here are the steps: 1. First connect the computer to the Internet with a cable (this is the easiest way) 2. Go here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds 3. You will likely be pointed here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current 4. Get the current kernel (I used http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/current/linux-image-2.6.32-999-generic_2.6.32-999.200910141000_i386.deb) 5. Install it: sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.32-999-generic_2.6.32-999.200910141000_i386.deb Now reboot and after startup, if you run dmesg you'll probably see "Cannot find firmware file b43/ucode15.fw" 1. The message will point you to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#device_firmware 2. Scroll down to "You are using the b43 driver with an LP-PHY card (e.g. BCM4312)" 3. Before you follow the instructions you'll need git: sudo apt-get install git-core 4. Now become root: sudo -i 5. Paste in the two sets of instructions - they will "git clone" the fwcutter and then download and install the firmware After that, reboot and you should be all set! ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags removed: needs-kernel-logs -- Broadcom bcm4312 wireless not detected at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203819 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

[Bug 203819] Re: Broadcom bcm4312 wireless not detected at all
Hi gromitsprinkles, This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ . If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux-image-`uname -r` 203819 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.
