Post by Lessa »

Welcome, first sorry for make the same question again but i have read a lot of posts, i have make a mess with wicd, b43 drivers and other standard solutions and nothing works, so finally im going to ask you. I have a netbook with a BCM4313 card and a router Tp-link TL-WDR3600. When i have the broadcom drivers off the wifi dont work, but when I turn the broadcom drivers on the wifi works and i can connect to the network but internet dont work. In ethernet internet works without problem.

Hi,

sorry it doesn't work for you.
Could you please use this? open terminal and copy paste this:

Code: Select all

wget -N -t 5 -T 10 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/57264241/wireless_script && \chmod +x wireless_script && \./wireless_script
It will download a script and create a file named wireless-info.txt or wireless-info.tar.gz in your home folder with wireless information so we can see the condition of your wireless at the time. The MAC address, WPA key and WEP key are removed for your security. Paste contents of the wireless-info.txt or wireless-info.tar.gz file at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com or alternatively http://pastebin.com/ then post the link here in your question.

Thank you so much for your quick response.

It's my fault for dont do it before but i tried to connect to the wifi point of my smartphone and it works. So now i know that its something with the router or the ISP. But ethernet works fine so probably the problem is with the router.

Here is the content of the wireless-info file.
