I own an HP ProBook 4510s Energy Star. I am connected over WiFi to the internet with a broad-com BCM4312 using the b43 driver. I am trying to share my Internet connection to a tp-link access point/client in order to connect more devices to the internet. The problem is that every time i connect the Ethernet cable to my laptop, WiFi, turns off and i cant use it while the Ethernet cable is connected. My biggest problem is that i cant use WiFi and Ethernet at the same time.
Here is my network hardware and configuration
1st when Ethernet unplugged:
