Re: [gentoo-user] wlan0 failed to start
Usually this indicates a lack of kernel support. I would check kernel .config or menuconfig to ensure all your Broadcom support has been enabled. if you know which modules are involved you can use modprobe to check them out (see if they're loaded or unavailable or whatever ). Good luck!
