Kaleb To follow-up for you and others, here is the order I did things:
Disable Wireless card and Secure Boot in BIOS Use the Ethernet port to install All will setup and work perfect Using links below I downloaded b43-fwcutter and wget packages into sys-net VM and followed the Fedora instructions to extract the firmware files from the chip into /lib/firmware/b43 When you reboot the VM these files will be lost unless you use qvm-copy-to-vm command to copy them to the Fedora TemplateVM Then I cloned sys-net VM to sys-net2 VM Reenable the WiFI card in BIOS In Devices section of VM settings make sure Ethernet card is removed and *don't* try adding WiFi card here as it needs the --permissive option below In dom0 I used qvm-pci a sys-net2 dom0:02_00.0 --persistent -o permissive=true to have that VM use the WiFi card Once the VM sees the firmware files in /lib/firmware/b43 and the --permissive is set and persistent sys-net2 should up working Now you can just change the sys-firewall settings to use either sys-net or sys-net2 and you always have a fallback to Ethernet again https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/b43 http://linuxwireless.sipsolutions.net/en/users/Drivers/b43/#firmware https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#b43%20-%20No%20Internet%20access https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/b43-fwcutter On Saturday, May 9, 2020 at 11:50:59 PM UTC+1, rkd...@gmail.com wrote: > > > Kaleb > > Here's what I have done so far and should get you started down the right > road while I figure out the rest. > > Disable Wireless card and Secure Boot in BIOS > Use the Ethernet port to install > All is setup and works perfect this way and allows you to install and > upgrade needed packages later > Update all the qubes and the system > I plan to backup the state it's in before continuing > > I haven't completed this yet but I've figured out a lot of it > The wireless can now be reenabled in BIOS > It must be attached to the correct qube (internet qube) with the qvm-pci > command (it seems to need the --permissive setting when doing this) > My chip is the Broadcom BCM43228 > From what I can tell so far it may need the firmware files to be added to > /lib/firmware/ > And the b43 driver > Folllow these links: > https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/b43 > http://linuxwireless.sipsolutions.net/en/users/Drivers/b43/#firmware > > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#b43%20-%20No%20Internet%20access > https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/b43-fwcutter > You should be close to getting it sorted with that info although I haven't > got there yet, > > > > > On Thursday, May 7, 2020 at 2:36:21 PM UTC+1, Kaleb C Tilley wrote: >> >> rkd777, >> >> I'm beginning to think that the embedded NIC for the system I purchased >> doesn't match the embedded link used to verify this architecture as valid >> for the QubesOS.
