BCM43142 keeps disconnecting

**Denco1** · September 17th, 2015

Hello everybody,
I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my HP Pavilion 15 laptop, which has BCM43142 Wireless card. Problem is, that the card keeps disconnecting. I tried a lot of solutions found here on the forums, but none of them helped.
Laptop sometimes disconnects and then connects again. It sometimes even asks for password. Restarting the laptop sometimes helps (for a while).

Thank you for your help.

I have the same problem with my HP.
Probably the best solution is throw the laptop in the trash and buy a MSI or something similar.
I am really discouraged with my HP laptop.
Anyway I have written broadcom several times asking for improve the linux driver, but I did not recive response yet.
If you like your HP(strange) you might look for a wifi card change.
