Broadcom Wireless in Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy)
The bcm43xx driver (via manual install) is now considered to be deprecated as it is now included in Ubuntu 8.04 and all Linux kernel versions 2.6.24 and later.
Connecting to your network
Network Manager is in control of all interfaces by default in Ubuntu 8.04 and it is available via the nm-applet in the on the upper right side of your screen, next to sound applet, etc... You can manage your connections directly by left clicking (to choose a network) or right (to see info, enable or disable networking) on it.
Manual Configuration of WPA
The bcm43xx driver has full support of the Linux Wireless Extensions and therefore should use wpa_supplicant via the wext driver interface. All known cards are capable of using WPA-PSK and WPA-Enterprise. See the WPA pages for more information about configuring Wi-fi Protected Access manually.
Further Notes
- linuxwireless.org provides a link to the most reliable firmware source as it is the one recommended by the bcm43xx developers. This means that it has had the most testing time and is actively maintained.
