Hello,
I recently upgraded My Dell Inspiron 1564 to 11.10, which uses the Broadcom BCM4312 wifi adapter. Since the upgrade, I'm having issues with the wifi. I can scan for and connect to my network, and I can even use it for a minute or two, but beyond that it times out and eventually goes to a state that says, "Waiting for authorization" and I cannot use the network. I know the password is correct as I'm connected at first (I've tried using an incorrect password, which doesn't connect at all). The wired network works fine.
I've tried the following, to no avail:
Installing bcmwl-kernel-source (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1445457&page=2)
Installing firmware-b43-lpphy-installer (http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/inde...t-1833795.html)
Removing blacklist (http://www.computerandyou.net/2011/0...-ubuntu-11-04/)
Patching and installing the proprietary driver manually (http://www.mindwerks.net/2011/06/wir...12-3-0-kernel/)
At this point, I'm at my wits end. Anyone have any step by step solutions?
