Hello there. Well I hope this is the correct list to post this. I got a dell studio 1555 with a dell wireless 1397 (broadcom 4312 rev 01) wificard. I am using the broadcom driver cause as far as I know there is no alternative. I installed the driver as descirpted in debian wiki with module assistant and then modprobing the wl module on every boot. Everything was working fine until an upgrade a couple of days ago. The packages broadcom-sta-source andt broadcom-sta-common upgaded from version 5.10.92.9.3-1 to 5.10.92.9.3-3 (actually the last digit is different which I thought would fix any supposed bugs existing -although I didn't have any). After the upgrade I used the module assistant to build the module wl again with the updated version of the driver. Well everything went just fine. The problem is that after the first reboot and then I couldn't see the eth1 network interface which is my wireless. As if the driver is just not working. I searched a little for a bug report and I didn't find anything. I currently have switched back to the previous driver version and everything is normal again. Any ideas why the updated driver doesn't work for me?
