--- Begin Message ---Package: broadcom-sta-dkms Version: 6.30.223.271-5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I am reporting essentially the same issue as in the recently-closed bug #849034. After upgrading to latest version of broadcom-sta-dkms, wifi connections no longer work on my Dell Latitude E5520, running up-to-date debian sid. The problem began once I upgraded broadcom-sta-dkms to the above-stated version.

[device] wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no ... to /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf, and then reboot. Unfortunately, this did not solve the problem for me. I wanted to try downgrading to the previous version of the package, but it appears that the sid version recently migrated to stretch, and so I can only find the jessie and jessie-backports versions. Anyway, thank you for your time.
