Hi eweryone
I have the same problem from 10.1 to 10.3.
I'm using WiFi with WEP encryption and not open but shared key
Right now I'm using ndiswrapeer to handle it.
Is someone found solution how to use bcm43xx with shose kind of settings
I had it working find on 10.2 as well as on Ubuntu on my laptop.
The bcm43xx native driver is installed and loaded, but you will notice
that the firmware is not installed. What you need to do is to download
BCMWL5.SYS, then use bcm43xx-fwcutter to extract the firmware. fwcutter
has an option to install the firmware, but it usually goes
into /lib/modules/<kernel version>/firmware.
Once I did this on my laptop, it came right up.. I was then able to use
YaST to enter the WEP key. Currently on Ubuntu, I am using Netmanager
because I operate on several networks.
I do have the firmware, and can send it as an attachment if you want
it, but it is not on this computer.
