lsmod will show all drivers:- Looking at this output that our Moderator jefro mentions; suggest's that the BCM43X is blacklisted:- Code:
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf] Maybe try using a usb wifi dongle:- http://www.wirelesshack.org/top-linu...-adapters.html |
Curious to see if the kernel driver is in use.

Is this the end of the story and I have an $800 brick now? |

To solve that you should install the driver for your bcm43142 wifi card. No, I don't think that you have a brick now. The kernel driver for your wired PCI Realtek card is installed. Having said that your wired connection should be good. When you can use your wired connection to download the driver for your broadcom nic. http://askubuntu.com/questions/76558...n-ubuntu-16-04 This article will give you knowledge and should help to get the broadcom firmware installed that you need. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...Driver/bcm43xx I didn't see the 4314 on that page so you may want to go directly to the Broadcom website. |
I'm sorry I did see the bcm43142 here-
But it doesn't look like it's supported. Quote:

No, broadcom's proprietary "wl" driver supports it, just not the open source b43 driver. Regards... |
Hi Michael Piziak...
Take a look at the following two threads, perhaps they might be of help... http://askubuntu.com/questions/40234...s-for-bcm43142 http://askubuntu.com/questions/45965...04-trusty-tahr Regards... |

I reinstalled Windows on it from the factory and it works fine. So it's not the wifi card that is faulty in the laptop. |
