Check that the wl kernel module loaded and make sure that the blacklist
file installed with the package /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-wl-blacklist is
working (the modules listed in it should not be loaded). (Use lsmod)


I don't know how to check whether the wl kernel module is loaded (sorry).

/etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-wl-blacklist lists bcm43xx, ssb, b43 adn ndsiwrapper -- which I guess is what it should be.

lsmod does not list any of these -- nor does it list broadcom-wl for that matter. Should it? I'm beyond my ken here, so I'd be grateful for step by step instructions and to what to do next.

Thanks
