Public bug reported:

Hello,

On a fresh install of Kubuntu there are no drivers for my TP-Link Archer
T9E AC1900. This uses a Broadcom 4360, with a PCI.ID of 14e4:43a0 (rev
3).

The installer I downloaded from the website was for (I believe) 25.04.
During the install process I could select a WiFi network, but it didn't
want to connect. The installer crashed (most likely unrelated to the
WiFi issue), and from then on the system refused to detect the WiFi
board. I have since updated to 25.10, and the situation is exactly the
same.

This is a dual boot system, and the WiFi works just fine in Windows. I
have made sure that the system is up to date. Fast boot is disabled. I
have also done a full shutdown to make sure Windows is not still holding
on to the board somehow. I have tried the Driver Manager and it does not
suggest any alternate drivers. I have also followed the instructions in
this thread: https://askubuntu.com/questions/55868/installing-broadcom-
wireless-drivers/60395 No success.

Root cause seems to be that the bcmwl-kernel-source package is not
available. I have tried other drivers, none of them have worked. I have
pretty much tried every advice I could come across, but no fix.

Do note that the WiFi board is discoverable with lspci

Will the bcmwl-kernel-source driver be made available again?
Is there an alternative?
Can it be downloaded in another manner?

Please let me know if you need any other details.

Thanks.
