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.
Just FYI, the signature of above post was received broken on the opensuse ML. I guess it has something to do with the quoting strings(look in the source, there's encoded with =20). Greetings Mirrakor
