This [http://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Broadcom_BCM4311_rev_01_(ndiswrapper) other howTo] is excellent, but it has a lot of exposition. All this background information is great if it's the first time you're setting up the card. However, if you're setting it for a second or third time, it's a lot of fluff to wade through. This is the distilled version.

Introduction

This other howTo is excellent, but it has a lot of exposition. All this background information is great if it's the first time you're setting up the card. However, if you're setting it for a second or third time, it's a lot of fluff to wade through. This is the distilled version. Update (Oct 2007): Gutsy Gibbon (*Ubuntu 7.10) has native support (via the restricted driver manger) that actually works, so this guide isn't strictly necessary for Gutsy. However Gutsy's native support isn't capable of quite the same bandwidth as this ndiswrapper solution. Fortunately, this guide also appears to be compatible with Gutsy . This guide is aimed for folks with a fresh installation of Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn). Things have changed for the better since Edgy Eft (e.g., you probably don't have to compile anything anymore), so if you have a fresh install of Feisty, and a BCM43xx, then this guide's for you. If that doesn't describe your situation exactly, this howTo might work, but if in doubt, head on over to the fluffy howTo. This guide assumes a wired connection, however, this post on the accompanying forum thread has some (untested) pointers on off-line installation (of the BCM4311, but they could easily be adapted for other BCM43xx versions). This guide happens to have been written against a Dell D620 with the built-in Dell 1390 mini wireless card (BCM 4311).

ShawnMcburnie Success Jul 3, 2007 Acer Aspire 9410Z; Intel 1390 (Broadcom BCM4311)
SebastianEwert Success Jul 5, 2007 BCM4318 in an Asus WL-138G-rev2. But used drivers from Asus Website. Installed WinXP drivers. Seems stable and I don't see any transmission power issues that I've seen with the free bcm34xx driver. Network Manager + WPA working [I've incorporated this feedback into the howto -- JamieJackson]
aciddecode Success Jul 9, 2007 Dell Inspiron 6400; Dell 1390 mini wireless card BCM4311
Merindabrayfield Success July 18, 2007 Compaq Presario c500; make sure you are connected to the internet before you start
(on behalf of) Snipersnest Success (with caveats) Aug 1 2007 I'm using an HP dv9010us laptop with bcm4311 [and I] have to load the system with noacpi. ...this tutorial now works for me. But not for Ubuntu 7.04. It works for me on Ubuntu 7.10 with the 2.6.22 kernel and NDISwrapper 1.48rc1 compiled from source. ... I found that in my case the 2.6.20-15/16 kernel and having to use noacpi makes ndiswrapper incompatible. This can be fixed by compiling a new 2.6.22 kernel OR wait till October and install Gusty Gibbon 7.10. If your feeling adventurous I guess you could try Gusty like I did. It fixed my problems.
(on behalf of) boomcat Success Aug 10, 2007 Specs: T20 Thinkpad, Pentium III at 700 mHz, 256M RAM, 100G HD, Feisty Faun i86 clean install, no other OS on this machine, Linksys WPC54G V3 PCMCIA wireless card. My card uses the BCM4318 chipset, so I used step 2c.
(on behalf of) ctt1wbw Success Aug 16, 2007 I didn't have to compile ndiswrapper. And I have the broadcom 4318 chip. I have an HP Pavillion dv8000 laptop.
Darkwolf2 Partial Success Aug 25, 2007 Compaq F572US xubuntu 7.04, Compile ndiswrapper 1.47, Used driver from a modified step listed in the thread [ed--this driver is now incorporated in Step 2a]; Cannot get IP lease with kernel 2.6.20-16, no issues with kernel 2.6.20-15 [darkwolf-- as of xubuntu 7.10 AMD64; this HowTo works with step 2a no compiling was needed.] [update 2: see gutsy success testimonial from Nov 10, 2007]
(on behalf of) bigbee79 Success Aug 29, 2007 I'm another frustrated F572US user, or I was frustrated. I used the new 2nd step [ed--now called step 2a] and after rebooting my wireless card is now working for the first time. Everything seems to be working great. I'm using the 64 bit version of Ubuntu and I used the suggested "noapic" during booting and install. I didn't use the irqpoll one though.
(on behalf of) may04 Success Sept 6, 2007 I am a new user and installed 7.04 a few times but could not get my Linksys WMP54G to work. Tonight I reinstalled and right after the updates I copied and pasted the commands, rebooted and opened Wireless Assistant 0.5.5 and it worked.

Instructions

This is not a script. You'll enter one line at a time*, and will individually respond to sudo password prompts, etc. ~-*You can also copy and paste one line at a time: To copy from the browser, use `ctrl-c`, but to paste into the terminal (at least Gnome's), use `ctrl-shift-v`.-~ Also, watch out for line wrapping! as this wiki unfortunately allows wrapping in code blocks. For that reason, I'd advise against using a narrow browser window. (Note if anyone knows how to prevent line wrapping on this wiki, feel free to fix it, or tell me how in the forum thread.) Notice that Step 1 is for all BCM43xx, the Step 2 option will depend on your card, and Step 3 is for all BCM43xx again.

Step 1: All BCM43xx - Install NDISWrapper and Blacklist Native Driver

echo 'blacklist bcm43xx' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
mkdir ~/bcm43xx; cd ~/bcm43xx

Step 2: Download and Extract Drivers

Pick ONLY ONE version of Step 2, depending on your card model or machine.

2007年11月30日 (六) 22:22 (CST)Model2007年11月30日 (六) 22:22 (CST) Chipset PCI ID Step 2 Version Notes
BCM4306 Step 2b
BCM4310 (rev 02) 14e4:4312 Step 2a I'm not sure which step to use for other revisions of BCM4310, but this is as good a guess as any. I'll update this if I get feedback.
BCM4311 (Rev 01) 14e4:4311 (rev 01) Step 2b In Gutsy, lspci shows this card as "Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)". Feisty shows the card as "Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card (rev 01)". NOTE: A couple of users claim that step 2b didn't work but step 2a did. I'm investigating this. In the meantime, if 2b doesn't work for you, you can try 2a by doing this.
BCM4311 (Rev 02) 14e4:4311 (rev 02) Step 2a In Gutsy, lspci shows: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 02)
BCM4318 (rev 01?) Step 2c (?) Is there a rev 01? In that case, my guess is step 2c.
BCM4318 (rev 02) 14e4:4318 (rev 02) Step 2c In Gutsy, lspci shows "Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)" NOTE: In Poobslag's testimonial he(?) claims that step 2c didn't work but step 2a did. I'm investigating this. In the meantime, if 2c doesn't work for you, you can try 2a by doing this.
BCM4328 (rev 01) 14e4:4328 (rev 01) Step 2d In Gutsy, lspci shows "Broadcom Corporation BCM4328 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 01)"
Other BCM43xx It looks like 2a might be good for Rev 02 devices, so I'd try that step for other Rev 02 devices. Otherwise, you could try one of the others. Please give feedback if you try and succeed or fail with other devices.
Step 2a: "BCM4310 (rev 02)" / "BCM4311 (rev 02)" Driver Download/Extraction

(Note: If you get "Couldn't find package cabextract" after line one, then enable the "universe" repository. Then, re-run line one.) 

sudo apt-get install cabextract
wget ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34152.exe
cabextract sp34152.exe
Step 2b: "BCM4306" / "BCM4311 (Rev 01)" Driver Download/Extraction

(Note: If you get "Couldn't find package cabextract" after line one, then enable the "universe" repository. Then, re-run line one.) 

sudo apt-get install cabextract
wget ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp33001-33500/sp33008.exe
cabextract sp33008.exe
Step 2c: "BCM4318" Driver Download/Extraction
wget http://dlsvr03.asus.com/pub/ASUS/wireless/WL-100g-03/Driverv3100640.zip
unzip Driverv3100640.zip; cp Driver/WinXP/* ./
Step 2d: "BCM4328" Driver Download/Extraction

Note: I've repackaged the files from the package specified in mooky's testimonial. (This cuts the download from 52MB to less than 1MB.) 

wget http://download297.mediafire.com/czzdjrxtjejg/exuymodkstx/bcm4328.zip
unzip bcm4328.zip

Step 3: All BCM43xx - Configure NDISWrapper (and WPA Supplicant)

sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf
ndiswrapper -l
sudo depmod -a
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
sudo cp /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/interfaces.orig
echo -e 'auto lo\niface lo inet loopback\n' | sudo tee /etc/network/interfaces
sudo ndiswrapper -m
echo 'ndiswrapper' | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
echo 'ENABLED=0' | sudo tee -a /etc/default/wpasupplicant

Now, REBOOT. After rebooting, you should be able to click the network manager icon. (In Gnome, it looks like two black monitors overlapping each other on the top panel.) Hopefully, you'll see the available wireless access points under "Wireless Networks" and your machine ought to try to connect to one of them if you remove your network cable (or if you select one of them with a mouse click). If you have wireless now, you're all set, and you don't need to proceed any further. However, if you'd like, you can skip way down to the bottom of this page, and go to "Cleanup," to delete the (now useless) installation directory that was left behind from the steps above.

No Luck Yet? Compile ndiswrapper from Source

You only need to do this if the Ubuntu ndiswrapper package doesn't work on your machine. For instance, Compaq F572US users report that after the above, NetworkManager doesn't show wireless networking, but report success after compiling and installing ndiswrapper from source.

Remove Stock ndiswrapper

sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper
sudo ndiswrapper -r bcmwl5
sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper-utils 
sudo rm -r /etc/ndiswrapper/ 
sudo rm -r /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper

Now, REBOOT.

Compile and Install New ndiswrapper

~-Nov 29, 2007: Instructions now point to newly-released ndiswrapper version 1.50-~ 

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-`uname -r` /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
mkdir -p ~/bcm43xx/ndiswrapper; cd ~/bcm43xx/ndiswrapper
sudo wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-1.50.tar.gz -Ondiswrapper.tar.gz
tar xvzf ndiswrapper.tar.gz
cd ndiswrapper*
make distclean
make
sudo make install

Redo Some Steps That Were Undone by ndiswrapper Compilation/Installation

cd ~/bcm43xx
sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf
ndiswrapper -l
sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
sudo ndiswrapper -m

Now, REBOOT.

Cleanup

Now, if you'd like, you can clean up the stuff that's left behind: 

rm -Rf ~/bcm43xx
