I tried following this guide but I still cannot get onto my wireless.
I had gotten on just fine before but when I updated I no longer could and I have no idea why. It's incredibly annoying and very stupid.
I typed
ndiswrapper -l
and got
bcmwl5 : driver installed
device (14E4:4311) present (alternative driver: bcm43xx)
in return.
I think, according to the guide, that means that I have an alternative driver rather than the ndiswrapper trying to control the card, or something. I tried to blacklist it but when I tried to and then saved I got this message
"could not save the file /etc/modprobe.c.blacklist.
you do not have the permissions necessary to save the file.
please check that you typed the location correctly and try again."
I also noticed that "bcm43xx" was already blacklisted.
Why can I not save that and why is "bcm43xx" trying to drive the card if it's already blacklisted?
