[Bug 130511] Re: Gusty updates broke my wireless connectivity
I had this problem with bcm43xx after upgrading from 7.04 to 7.10 as well. I ran ndiswrapper on 7.04 so, after removing ndiswrapper, and reinstalling ndiswrapper from source with no success. I then spent many frustrating hours trying and failing to get the firmware cutter restricted driver to work until I came back to ndiswrapper and resolved to make it work again. Directions for ndiswrapper found here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper after this step: depmod -a modprobe ndiswrapper tail /var/log/messages reveals the problem: laptop kernel: [ 16.716000] ndiswrapper: changing interface name from 'wlan0' to 'eth1' Oct 20 12:41:14 laptop kernel: [ 66.416000] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready My fix was to edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules I changed ETH1 to WLAN0, saved the changes and rebooted.

[Bug 130511] Re: Gusty updates broke my wireless connectivity
Hardware: BCM4306, rev 02 Using the bcm43xx driver, *not* ndiswrapper. Kernel package is 2.6.22-10 (all updates applied as of this morning, although it broke a couple weeks ago). The correct firmware is definitely installed in /lib/firmware and nowhere else. Problem: I can see networks to connect to (using e.g. KNetworkManager). Trying to connect fails; for instance, again using KNetworkManager, it stops at 57% complete Activation Stage: IP configuration started. From bug#124159 (Broadcom bcm43xx Wireless driver regression in gutsy), it looks like a connection *can* be made (using the bcm43xx drivers in the current kernel), but the throughput is very low and strongly dependent on distance/signal strength - so perhaps I'm simply too far away. Of course, then it works out as bcm43xx hardware can't connect to anything farther than 5 feet away, which is still pretty broken... dmesg shows repeated error messages: [ 29.036000] bcm43xx: TODO: Incomplete code in keymac_write() at /build/buildd/linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/drivers/net/wireless/bcm43xx/bcm43xx_main.c:1112 (and also at line 1114). (Yes, the full output of dmesg, as well as version_signature, lspci -vvnn, and uname -a, is all attached.) Looking at the source confirms this - that bit of keymac_write() really is just a stub. That function is exactly the same in the 2.6.20 source (package 2.6.20-16.31 from feisty). So I guess this turned out to be a me too and/or a bump. ** Attachment added: bugrep130511.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9153582/bugrep130511.txt -- Gusty updates broke my wireless connectivity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130511 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In Gutsy '/etc/iftab' has been deprecated in favor of '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' so perhaps that is causing an issue. Could you migrate your settings from your '/etc/iftab' to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' and report back?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please include as attachments the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team: 1. Please include the output of the command 'uname -a' in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture. 2. Please run the command 'dmesg dmesg.log' and attach the resulting file 'dmesg.log' to this bug report. 3. Please run the command 'sudo lspci -vvnn lspci-vvnn.log' and attach the resulting file 'lspci-vvnn.log' to this bug report. For your reference, the full description of procedures for kernel-related bug reports is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeamBugPolicies . Additionally, it is not quite clear to me where the bug lies. Is it that your wireless connection is not called wlan0 or that you are unable to connect to a wireless network?

Re: [Bug 130511] Re: Gusty updates broke my wireless connectivity
uname -a Linux Lat-Lap 2.6.22-9-generic #1 SMP Fri Aug 3 00:50:37 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux dmesg.log attached lspci-vvnn.log attached Where s the problem? When I first tried Gusty Tribe 3 wireless worked. I could both, connect to the internet without a patch cable connected to my laptop, and I could single-left-click on the network manager icon in the notification area of the top panel. Once clicked, it showed several wireless networks which were available. Since wireless had been a problem in Feisty I quickly looked at the interfaces file and found wlan0 and wlan was shown correctly in the network-manager application and if I did a iwconfig. Now, there are no wireless networks show in the network manager icon in the notification area... iwconfig reports wireless on eth3 with a nickname of broadcom 4306 and I cannot connect if the cable is disconnected. So... the problem is both!smile I really think that the wlan0 versus eth3 is part of the problem. Wish I could go back to that wonderful time when it started working. But alas, I do not know how. Thanx for working this. zeddock PS. Just looked into those files. Wow! You know what all that means?!

No. It does not need improvement, it needs to be re-fixed! It has become broken during an update. As my post said, it did not work out-of-the-box on Feisty. It did, however, work on Gusty, Tribe 3, before the 3rd of Aug. Thanx for the hard work.
