wireless internet in backtrack 5
 

does anyone else have the same problem
my wireless internet doesn't work in backtrack 5
i have a bcm 4312 wireless card

does anyone know a driver for bcm4312 card that would make it work in backtrack5

Have you installed the needed firmware for that device?

well i couldn't use my wireless but i installed the drivers in fedora and it worked
but they are in rpm format i dont think they would work in backtrack 5

other than that everything is in its default mode i haven't installed anything
thanx for your reply

EDIT: is there a site from whiich i can download the firmware
