    HOWTO: Broadcom 4311 WiFi Card

    http://wiki.waningsun.net/index.php?...26_Linux_HOWTO
    _________________________________________________
    This tutorial works with every Broadcom 4311 WiFi card I have setup now on various laptops (not just Dell, it works great on my Compaq as well).

    To find out if you have a Broadcom 4311 card, type the following at the command line (KMenu->System->Konsole Terminal Program):
    Code:
    lspci |grep Broadcom
    The screen output should be similar to, if not the same as:
    Code:
    06:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Unknown device 4311 (rev 01)
    If this is your output, use the following tutorial (NOTE: Check the bottom link concerning the bcm43xx-fwcutter utility prior to following through, read the note below) http://wiki.waningsun.net/index.php?...26_Linux_HOWTO
