I have a Broadcom BCM4360 wireless card (Archer T8E), which uses the wl

But I've upgraded the lappy to an XFCE vesion

Have you found a solution to the NIC issue yet?

Thanks,

Hello list,
I know the subject has been already discussed on the list, but without
any real solution...
It seems that there is a real problem with the 12th Dell generation
poweredge and Wheezy about the Broadcom NIC.
In my case I'm using Dell R420 server and an up-to-date Wheezy.

After some more tests, I have discovered, that those missing
patches are part of BQL backport to 3.2 kernel (therefore their absence

Then I have noticed small patch in 3.2.43: "tg3: fix length overflow in VPD
firmware parsing", so I have compiled vanilla kernel and got the NIC working
correctly. I will yet try to apply this patch on stock Wheezy kernel, but I

I have encountered exactly the same problem. Got four new Dell servers
(2xR820, 2xR620), all with Broadcom 5720. I have installed Wheezy on all of
them, including Xen. But only on two of them, I have installed
firmware-linux-nonfree and only on ONE of them (namely R820), the NIC

Hey
I'm running debian wheezy with custom 3.7.1 kernel to support my
Broadcom 57766 netcard.
However since this is a server (Mac Mini Server) I would rather use a
longterm kernel like 3.2.43,
also since grsecurity is supported as stable.
Do anyone have a patch or something simil
