Sorry, this is not truth, I was confuse. The wireless is up 1min after tip "modprobe b43"

Any advice?

This is what my / etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-dkms.conf looks like:

Code: Select all

# wl module from Broadcom conflicts with the following modules:
#blacklist b43
#blacklist b43legacy
blacklist b44
#blacklist bcma
blacklist brcm80211
blacklist brcmsmac

d_o is right, I don't have broadcom-wl it in the file because I uninstalled the package.
