Install Broadcom-STA (wl) driver in LMDE

[1]

• Update the list of available packages. Install the module-assistant and wireless-tools packages:

apt-get update

apt-get install module-assistant wireless-tools

• Build and install a broadcom-sta-modules-* package for your system, using Module-Assistant:

m-a a-i broadcom-sta

The "a-i" stands for "auto-install," meaning "download the module source, compile it for the current kernel and install it".

• Blacklist the brcm80211 module, to prevent it conflicting for support of BCM4313, BCM43224 and BCM43225 devices:

echo blacklist brcm80211 >> /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-common.conf

• Rebuild your initial ramdisk, to blacklist modules defined at /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-common.conf within initramfs:

update-initramfs -u -k $(uname -r)

• Unload conflicting modules:

modprobe -r b44 b43 b43legacy ssb brcm80211

• Load the wl module:

modprobe wl

• Verify your device has an available interface:

iwconfig

• Configure your wireless interface as appropriate.

• Exit the root terminal:

exit
