Hello all,
I am having a unusual issue. My wifi works only for a min (literally 60 sec or less) only after clearing my ssid from the saved profiles and rebooting. also if I don’t login within that min window it will not work. I booted to BT3 and had no issues using wifi. I have also checked my router, tried every setting (WEP, WPA, N/A, Diff Chan, 5Mhz, 2.4Mhz, etc) and no luck keeping a connection. It just keeps trying to authenticate and gets nowhere.
HP Mini 1030nr

01:00.0 Network Controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)
pls help
Thanks,

They seem very similar. Mine works

Same. I just corrected the typo from copy and paste
The b43 driver is another possible. Remove the broadcom packages. And do this:
sudo /usr/sbin/install_bcm43xx_firmware
You may need to remove any relevant blacklist of b43 from
Thats what i had before. How do i remove the installed packages and check the blacklist?
thx
