@Christoper: This is a valid bug. The fact that it hasn't been fixed in
1.5 years doesn't make it invalid. By closing this and invalid and
making me create a new one you just drop useful information, delete
"hottness" and exclude subscribers from progress on the new bug. Not the
way to go imo

I still have the same issue on utopic. Am stuck on kernel 3.13.0-23,
which is the last one I could compile bcmwl-kernel-

Just an update: Nickolay's patched 6.20.155.1 package doesn't compile
against kernel 3.15 any more. So atm you either want to stay on a lower
kernel version or you'll be left with broken/bad WiFi on that chip.
Anyone got the time to try updating 6.20 for the latest kernel sources?

I've tried 6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu1 and while I could see 5Ghz
networks, both 2.5 and 5Ghz networks were unstable - connections
dropping every 30s or so + ping slow..
Downgraded according to the mentioned instructions to 6.20.155.1+bdcom-

the-broadcom-bcm4331-wireless-drivers-on-ubuntu-1310/ to build a dkms

Is it an option for ubuntu developers to provide this old version in the

Hi,
I have the same problem using 3.12.9-031209-generic 64bit mode.
Nickolay, is it too much to ask if you could provide a deb package for

Thanks,

Yeah... the b43 driver somewhat worked with raring but has always been
very unstable for me. Additionally it does not support the 5GHz band on
the BCM4331 chip which would eliminate it as an alternative to the
bcmwl, even if it would become more stable.

I can concur with Michael's assessment.
I've a Macbook Pro 8,1, with broadcom 4331 wifi chip. With raring, wifi
was quite stable (I was using b43 then). Doing a clean-install of saucy,
my wifi was highly unstable (using wl). I had same instability using
b43.

Adam,
according to

with the B4313). I tried to unload wl and loaded the brcmsmac. The card
does not get detected. So using the brcmsmac driver is n
Michael,
"The standard wl driver does recognize the card (only b/g), but does not
connect at all."
My understanding is that bcmwl is the wl.ko driver, and you later say
that bcmwl 6.20.x works. What do you mean by, "the standard wl driver"?

Btw, digging a bit deeper, seems support for the BCM4331 has been added
with version 6.20.155.1 release while the package description still

chip yet.

The b43 does not support 5GHz on this chip and 3.4GHz connections are so
unreliable and slow that I lost quite some hair because of that one.
Basically the connection drops either after some time (10-20 mins) or as
soon as there is more than 5 Megabytes of traffic to handle.
