Public bug reported: On a clean updated 14.04 i686 I've installed the b43 driver/firmware by simply installing the firmware-b43-installer and I got the behavior. Later I installed additionally the linux-firmware-nonfree but it didn't change a thing. What basically happens is: [ 1276.674500] wlan0: authenticate with 00:24:d1:7a:23:d9 [ 1276.685246] wlan0: direct probe to 00:24:d1:7a:23:d9 (try 1/3) [ 1276.888134] wlan0: direct probe to 00:24:d1:7a:23:d9 (try 2/3) [ 1277.092106] wlan0: direct probe to 00:24:d1:7a:23:d9 (try 3/3) [ 1277.296170] wlan0: authentication with 00:24:d1:7a:23:d9 timed out
And so on. The attached system info has been acquired after I tried the linux- firmware-nonfree after uninstalling (purge) the firmware-b43-installer package. The system has not been modified in any other way. ** Affects: linux-firmware-nonfree (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: firmware wireless ** Attachment added: "troubleshooting and system info" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319491/+attachment/4112502/+files/wifi_tbs_info.txt ** Package changed: b43-fwcutter (Ubuntu) => linux-firmware-nonfree (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319491 Title: Broadcom 4312 WLAN connection times out To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware-nonfree/+bug/1319491/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
