Either that or fix it through NDISWRAPPER, or install some other way.
I am on a DELL Latitude D800, and I have a bunch more machines that need wireless working if I am ever to offer an option to users other than MS.

Thanx.

Might be related to Bug #92088 . This is really more of a support request than a bug though...

I uninstalled wifi-radar and ndiswrapper. Then I downloaded: http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/pool/feisty-cafuego/bcm43xx/bcm43xx-firmware_1.3-1ubuntu2_all.deb.
Then I installed that nd now it works on feisty :-)
Thanks Jukka

If the link worked at all, it didn't work until I applied an update.

Although I have a 4309, a 4306 driver was used. Attached are Dmsg

Original reported said they got it to work. If it is still an issue, just reopen it. Thanks!
