Hello all:

 

I am still trying (feverishly) to get my wireless working on my laptop.

I am trying (for starters) to connect to my AP with no security enabled.

 

 

I have a Broadcom 4306 running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn.

 

I have tried a few different ways around this I am now at the following
place:

 

                -ndiswrapper seemed to install and configure fine. 

                -I have commented out all but the lo interface in
/etc/network/interfaces

                -freshly installed network-manager-gnome

                +rebooted and ran modprobe ndiswrapper

 

 

When I run  $sudo ndiswrapper -l

It shows me the bcmwl5 driver I installed with my device, followed by
'(alternate driver: bcm43xx)'

 

If I look at an lsmod it shows me that ndiswrapper is loaded but used by 0

 

If I look at the connection information in Network Manager it shows the
driver for Wireless Ethernet (eth1) as bcm43xx

 

 

Am I correct in my assumption that ndiswrapper is not being used by the
device, and if so does anyone have suggestions on how to approach the
problem?
