HowTo: Configure Broadcom 4318 in Ubuntu 7.04

tell you how I did to get my broadcom wireless to work in ubuntu 7.04, I got some problems with the others ubuntu, but with this one it was a peace of cake. I use ndiswrapper to do it.

The first thing you should do is to blacklist the native driver bcm43xx, to do this you just have to write in a console this:

sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

• Add this line to the file:
  

blacklist bcm43xx

• The we add in a console:

sudo rmmod bcm43xx

Right now we should install ndiswrapper and it's utils, we have two ways of doing this:

Visual way:

• Open Sinaptic from Sistem/Administration/Sinaptic
  
• And select the next packages:
  
• ndiswrapper-common
• ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 (Probably the other utils are already installed, but we need this one)

• Click on apply and you are done
  

With console:

• Write this in a console:
• sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
• Then push ENTER

After that we should download the drivers from broadcom, here you have the link .

In a console we add:

sudo ndiswrapper-i / directory
Where Your drivers are/bcmwl5.inf
Then:


sudo ndiswrapper-l Should
Now we make Himself Whenever execute ndiswrapper ubuntu logs in
sudo gedit / etc / modules Finally we add

: ndiswrapper



Thats all for this, Any question just tell me. Thanks to
