Hi All,

I have newly installed Ubuntu 10.04 on an old Dell Inspiron 5100. The computer can detect wireless but it won't connect. Under hardware drivers, it is using Broadcom B43legacy wireless driver.

lspci says my wireless card is "Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)"

Any help would be awesome and if you need anymore information just let me know.

Thanks
