Hello all.
Monitoring this board, it seems to me that people use the bcmw15 driver
with ndiswrapper for our laptop's Broadcom wifi. I tried using that,
but 'ndiswrapper -l' did not respond with 'hardware present' (that is,
it did not detect the card). In my case, it was the 'netbc564' driver
that worked. The Acer web site (recommended in the past) has several
drivers available, so it could be possible I missed the right one. So,
could somebody comment on the right driver for ndiswrapper?
It depends on whether you are running a 32-bit or 64-bit OS. The
'bcmwl5' (note: it's an L not a 1) is the 32-bit driver whereas the
'netbc564' is the 64-bit driver.
