Adam, according to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211#Broadcom_brcmsmac_driver the brcmsmac driver does not support the B4331 chip (not to be confused with the B4313). I tried to unload wl and loaded the brcmsmac. The card does not get detected. So using the brcmsmac driver is not an option.
Scratch that "standard wl driver". Before using Ubuntu I was using ArchLinux and they shipped the wl driver too. Apparently that was the same as the current one but only an earlier version, which did not support this chip yet. Because of that I got confused and thought there would be a in-tree wl driver and additionally, this patched version in form of the bcmwl-kerner-source package. So bottomline, bcmwl-kernel-source version 6.20 is the only driver that makes my card usable. b43 is really slow and unstable, brcmsmac does not support the card at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1189611 Title: bcmwl-kernel-source 6.30.223.30+bdcom-0ubuntu1 fails to see 5GHz networks and is unstable on 2.5GHz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/1189611/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
