Best distro for Broadcom 43xx

dindoung1 · 10-21-2012, 03:38 PM

I have FC11 installed on my Compaq presario 2100. I was able to configure my Broadcom4306 using the b43cutter but my connection is always very unstable. Is there a distro that is known to have a more stable connection when using this particular wifi chipset?

The relevant details are available through

Code:

sudo iwlist wlan0 scan |less

Post the output of that for your wireless point; the quality is of interest, and check that no neighbours are using the same wifi channel.

It's basically the same kernel modules in all distros. What is inclined to matter more is configuration.
