grep wl_apsta /var/log/syslog did not give any output. However, dmesg
gave the following error message:
b43-phy0: Broadcom 4312 WLAN found (core revision 15)
b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 6, Type 5, Revision 1)
b43: probe of ss60:0 failed with error -95
Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [Features: PMLR, Firmware-ID: FW13]
What is the solution?
It appears that particular chipset is not supported by the b43
open-source driver. You have three alternatives:
1. Use the vendor-provided, non-open-source Linux driver. See
http://wiki.debian.org/wl
2. Use ndiswrapper. This lets you use the Windows driver in Linux. See
http://wiki.debian.org/NdisWrapper
3. Buy a different wireless card.
Hope this help!
