Hi, this NIC-module is not included in Knoppix. You have to build it yourself. The module is called 'bcm5700' . Let me think where I found it .,.. http://www.broadcom.com. You can either patch Your kernel-source to include that NIC or build it stand-alone. add 'bcm5700' to your /etc/modules file and call update-modules afterwards - I think that will do. Cheers Robert hello robert, i've got the same problem with the same hardware/system. i produced the file 'bcm5700.o', then as far as you described i did everything, but when i called update-modules there came an error about the file 'gamma.o' (sorry, i did not copy that). so, i dropped the 'gamma.o' file in another directory, called update-modules again - everything seemed to be fine (no error message returned). but on the next system-restart i got a loop of 'error in line xxx modules.conf'. because i'm a linux-beginner i dont knew something better than reinstalling my knoppix and try again... if you please could give me a hint, whats the problem? thank you, andi
