yes, do what cenotaph is suggesting OR take a look at step 4B on the guide, i added it for you, just take note of the name of the folder you want to move them to and apply that command to your situation.Originally Posted by piracyrocks

are you sure the module is loaded? do "lsmod | grep bcm" just to check if bcm43xx is there
and yes, you just have to download the 86 version and install like you did with the AMD64 version. no biggy.

Sorry about the delay piracyrocks, I got caught up surfing.
I have a Turion 64 but I am using the 32bit Ubuntu. I did follow nickm's guide and I did have some hills to climb but don't worry they are worth it and I feel you will get your wireless up and running. One think I did that wasn't on the guide was I set up a dymanic ip and I have wep encryption as well.
if you post after you install the 32bit version we can help you and walk you through it. Don't give up

I've been using ndiswrapper for a very long time now, and was really thrilled to be able to use a native driver for my Broadcom 4306. It does work, it find the device, etc., however, connectivity is so choppy and slow. I had to resort back to ndiswrapper, which gives me excellent connectivity. I wonder if it is the drivers that need more work, or something in my configuration. I first set it using Flight 5 live cd, just to test it before I do it on my machine. Even though I have not done clean install (meaning I've been upgrading from Breezy), I am not certain that is the sole reason why connectivity sucks with the bcm43xx. Is it some other driver that needs to be enabled too, or is it choppy for everyone?
Ubuntu addict and loving it
Ok. Everythings works great except 1 thing (theres always a catch). Everytime I reboot the connection is gone. I have to go to the "Properties" of the wireless card and as soon as I do that (I dont touch a thing but look at its properties) its up and working fine. Untill a reboot. Weird.
Heres my info:
- Dell Inspiron 2200 laptop
Code:user@pc:~$ lspci | grep Broadcom\ Corporation 0000:02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
- Interfaces
Id rather not use ndiswrapper but hey, it worked.Code:# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.

Hmmm... Looks like this is what I should do, as I have the same system. This is a bit discouraging though. I paid for a 64 bit processor and it would have been nice to finally use an OS that took advantage of that instruction set. Are there any performance differences between the two? How about power management?
