Im also affected by this. Its not that the wireless device doesnt connect, it doesnt even appear listed in the nm-applet. Also, the hardware controllers dont show the broadcom controllers anymore. As I had done for Hardy, I tried installing the b43-fwcutter package, but this didnt helped. To make it work, I had to use ndiswrapper, by downloading this file http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R174291.exe Extract it, install and run ndiswrapper: sudo apt-get install ndisgtk sudo ndisgtk And install bcmwl5.inf that is among the extracted files above. Of course, I needed to be connected to a wired network to do this. -- Broadcom Wireless BCM4311 (rev 02) not supported in karmic koala https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378723 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

Did you have pre-release repositories enabled in Jaunty before dist- upgrading? I had this same issue when I tried to do a dist-upgrade. I then decided (since my linux install was minimal), to do a full CD install of karmic. My wifi worked absolutely fine, until I enabled pre- release to get KDE 4.3beta to play with. After reboot, my wifi failed to connect.. it would continually try.. but would fail to hold a connection. After checking "dmesg" I found my logs littered with these: 39255.154157] wlan0: associated [39261.359027] wlan0: disassociated (Reason: 15) [39262.357046] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39262.557061] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39262.758105] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39262.957027] wlan0: association with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 timed out [39263.733729] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39263.741198] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39263.741825] wlan0: authenticated [39263.741828] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39263.747221] wlan0: RX ReassocResp from 00:21:29:6b:74:45 (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=2) [39263.747224] wlan0: associated [39269.955426] wlan0: disassociated (Reason: 15) [39270.952190] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39271.153039] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39271.352043] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39271.552043] wlan0: association with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 timed out [39272.330049] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39272.337192] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39272.339188] wlan0: authenticated [39272.339197] wlan0: associate with AP 00:21:29:6b:74:45 [39272.342799] wlan0: RX ReassocResp from 00:21:29:6b:74:45 (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=2) it would occasionally ask me to re-enter my password for the router.. but still continually fail until I eventually cancelled it out.
