Broadcom (BCM94306) + ndiswrapper
I have a problem. I installed ndiswrapper. It works fine afaik. I installed my driver (bcmwl5) and typed ndiswrapper -l and it says driver present, hardware present. Then, I try iwconfig wlan0 and it sees the wireless card.
This is where I am having problems
i do /sbin/iwlist wlan0 scanning
it tells me that my wireless network is there.
When i do iwconfig wlan0 essid "hamlan" i get no error message, and when i go back to iwconfig wlan0 it still says ESSID: off/any
Any ideas whats goin on?
Edit: Sorry, forgot log
