I think the dmesg that you posted is not complete. I do not see anywhere were the wl.ko is loaded into the kernel. There should (unless someone fiddled with it) be a message about how this taints the kernel. I do see that it is getting loaded tho. I wonder if its set to access point mode or something tho since it is not showing up correctly when you do a iwconfig.

So, what is the problem?
Your wireless works. There are a lot of manuals for Ubuntu how to use NetworkManager. You need just connect. |
If you don't like their NM, you can try WICD - it is much simple.
|
The interesting thing is that, while it would appear that I do have a wireless connection, I am unable to connect to the net. I have to be physically connected to my modem in order to do so. So if I am able to connect wirelessly, what gives?
|
Hmm, a lot has been posted in this thread so please forgive me if you've already provided this info.
What is your access point? Is it running dhcp with wep or something? If so have you tried something as simple as Code:
iwconfig eth2 essid whatever |
How do I find out what my access point is? How can I tell if I'm running DHCP or WEP? I'd really appreciate detailed instructions, thanks!

Is this what you needed to know?

Of the scan output which is your wifi access point?
Incidentally I had similar problem with my bcm4306 and kubuntu 9.10 beta 64bit |
Okay you answered my question, now I would suggest that you turn off encryption on your nexus access point, and try to connect again with nimnull22's commands that lead to your scan results.
once you can connect in open mode then we can progress to wpa-supplicant (the bane of my life!) |
First of all, Maxximiliann.
You have try to connect with Network manager on Ubuntu, or explain us why you don't want or can't do this. Second, can Network Manager scans you network and allows you to choose you AP, choose encryption? Because you start this thread with question: "Cannot get Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g to connect w/ Ubuntu 9.10" But your wireless perfectly works. It is not Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g problems. To solve any problem with linux - one have to at least determine exact problem. Because solving one we can make other. |
I stated at the outset "I can't get my wireless connection to access the net." Don't know how I could have been any clearer.
As far as the Network Manager is concerned, it automatically connects me to Nexus but I'm not able to connect to the net. I'm working on implementing minrich's suggestion. I'll be back to post the results soon. |
Minrich,
I've implemented your suggestion and the Network Manager was unable to detect any wireless networks at all. I posted results here: http://pastebin.com/m5a2f0b96. Oddly enough, I re-enabled encryption on my router and my Network Manager was able to, once again, discover all available wireless networks but I still can't connect to the internet wirelessly. What's next? |
Here is a magic potion:
You could try bringing, as root, the wlan0 interface down and then up: # ifdown wlan0 # ifup wlan0 # iwconfig wlan0 # iwlist wlan0 scan # ifconfig -a NB the first command may fail - don't worry about it - it just clears the ifstate the second command brings it up, the third command should show the essid (access point name) you are connected to, the fourth scans for all aps within range, and the fifth shows what IP address your wlan0 interface is linked to and whether it is transmitting and receiving. Your pastebin dump shows that the scan worked fine with encryption off. |
Quote:
|
nimnull22 - I ahd to think about your post for a while .... but M's post says that his network manager (god bless them all) doesn't see anything whilst we see a sucessful scan and know that the wlan0 interface is up and working but not connected/connecting to the Nexus access point.
So when he gets back to us, I intend to give him some manual iwconfig settings to lock his machine into the Nexus ap, like you I don't use network managers! That's probably why we keep meeting like this ( I know you come here often - so I won't ask! ). |
He won't be able manually connect to AP while NM is active, we talked about it here.
Some one's asked already about it. |
|
Sooooooo sorry, try again substituting eth2 for wlan0, I am following too many threads at once.
|
duh, you need the B43 driver / firmware
|
Minrich,
Here you go: http://pastebin.com/m30447cb7 Still can't connect to the net wirelessly. Do you think I may be missing a driver? |
the iwconfig eth2 output shows that you are connected to the right access point 00:22:57:1F:E9:CF which is the Nexus MAC address see your scan output Cell2.
However you have put encryption back 'on' on the nexus router and we haven't got there yet. If you reset the encryption to open, then try in a browser to open http://192.168.1.1 you should wirelessly connect to the router admin / password page. we'll progress from there if you are successful. Incidentally, there is tons of traffic going through eth2 1.6MB received and 108.8KB transmitted according to the output of sudo ifconfig -a |
Wait

I couldn't connect to http://192.168.1.1 from my machine so I had to use my windows desktop to disable Nexus' encryption protocols. Once completed, I tried to connect to http://192.168.1.1 from my laptop and was unable to do so. Tried to do it wired and wirelessly. Same result.
http://pastebin.com/m372b870c I take it I'm not missing a driver, right? |
sudo route -n does not produce any output. Since disabling my router's encryption protocols I am unable to connect to Nexus. Oddly enough, the system requests my WPA2 password but I disabled that.

What nimnull22 said
Please post the output of: route -n it should look like this: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth2 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth2 If 192.168.1.1 isn't the address of the Nexus router do you know what is? How do you connect to it in Windows? |
Being physically connected to the modem, I ran route -n once again.
Result: http://pastebin.com/m27a8613d I did use http://192.168.1.1 to connect to my router from my Windows machine. |
well your route output shows the correct info but for eth4 whereas ifconfig is set to eth2, I am reading the route man page as I type and will post my suggestions on how to edit your routing table - it is a problem I haven't encountered before, but it does explain why your laptop won't connect with encryption on or off.
I suggest you take a look at man route in the meantime |
His route is useless.
First his IP - 192.168.1.3 Mask:255.255.255.0 That means GW should be 192.168.1.1 To have ability to go out from wireless INTERFACE should be eth2 So 1. route del -net 192.168.0.0 1.1 route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 0.0.0.0 eth2 2. route del -net 0.0.0.0 2.2 route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 gw 192.168.1.1 eth2 But this will work ONLY if his GW= 192.168.1.1. To find it out OP, please connect to your router (no important how) and type from root console dhcpcd -T eth0 (if you connect through ethernet) dhcpcd -T eth2 (if you connect through wireless) Post outputs please. |
I am thinking:
route add -net 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth2 route add default gw 192.168.1.1 dev eth2 should, I think, change the output of route -n to what we want run route -n and see what comes out, I am not going to experiment on my machine since it is my only way of connecting to LQ. If the effect of these changes is correct you can try to reach http://192.168.1.1 AGAIN. |
nimnull22 is correct, unfortunately he was offline when I posted may last message which you can now safely ignore

Sorry but I have to get some sleep its 01:22 here in the UK and I have to be up early for tomorrow's activities. happy Christmas to you all.

SUCCESS!!! - http://pastebin.com/d703b053e
It appears that the problem was because dhcpcd was missing form my system. Once installed everything started working properly. Thanks guys for all your help!! |
I'm happy.
|
Ok, new problem. Re-enabled my encryption protocols and I lost my connection to the net even though Network Manager tells me I'm connected. What happened?

Thanks. |
Went back into my router's encryption settings and restored them. Here's what they're set to now:
WPA: WPA-PSK (no server) WPA MODE: WPA2 Encryption Technique: TKIP |

So in Network Manager you have to choose the same encryption method and set the same password. Can you check all of this. |
Same encryption method and key. Still can't connect to the net.
Incidentally, Synaptic tells me that I have wpasupplicant version 0.6.9-3ubuntu1 already installed. |
Can you check the file: /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
If you have one, please post its content. Thanks. |
Doesn't look like I have a wpa_supplicant.conf. What now?
|
install wicd
http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php It will fix your wpa_supplicant issues garenteed |
Try that way, install WICD, any way - it is much nicer.
|
WICD installed; version 1.6.1-3ubuntu1. It tells me that I'm connected to Nexus but I'm still unable to connect to the net. What's next?

route -n |
There's no output when I run route -n because I can't maintain my connection to Nexus. It connects and then a few seconds later, it loses it.

/etc/wpa_supplicant ? what inside? |
