Unholy Moley! Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Do you have an exact model? Broadcom wireless-g card isn't going to cut it. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/483100-broadcom-80211g-linux-driver/#findComment-587746765 Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertex Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 NDISWrapper might help you, wses the win driver on your linux machine. Worked good for me so far.

_BeanZ_ Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 +1 NDISWrapper just installed Ubuntu on my laptop, had been using fwcutter but had some issues with the wireless not connecting after reboots tried again with NDISWrapper and haven't had any issues since hopefully this should guide you through the process Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/483100-broadcom-80211g-linux-driver/#findComment-587746810 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrA Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Well, there's NDISwrapper. Recently, the kernel has acquired a broadcom wireless driver by reverse-engineering the windows one. You might want to try a custom kernel with a recent kernel revision. I'm just giving you another option. NDISwrapper is probably the easiest way.
