I had the same problem (I just installed Ubuntu 9.10, 64 bit) on my HP Pavilion dv 6000 laptop.

I got my Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11a/b/g card to work after following mrefan's suggestions but there is still something very wrong here! My wireless connection is disconnection again and again and asking me to re-inserting the wireless security key every time!? WTF is going on, anyone?

I have the same problem. The driver is installed. But it won't connect, it just disconnects other times it just states that it couldn't get IP-address.

Installed Ubuntu 9.10 just after the release!

Please help!

Same BCM4312 here. I got it installed with ndiswrapper, but no luck to connect to my Access Point.

Any ideas?

install this package and dependencies:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/da/karmic...-kernel-source

then try again

I've already got that package. So I reinstalleded, but changes.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 32bit.
