This article introduces the relevant knowledge of "the installation method of Ubuntu wireless network card driver". In the operation of actual cases, many people will encounter such a dilemma, so let the editor lead you to learn how to deal with these situations. I hope you can read it carefully and be able to achieve something!

1, my network card is Broadcom (Broadcom), the driver download address: http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php after decompression.

2. Ctrl+alt + T open the terminal and enter commands (install the necessary tools)

Sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic

Sudo apt-get build-dep linux

Note: you unzipped it in that file and compiled it in that folder. The same is true of the following orders. For example: I put the compressed package in / home/hufy/ important, first use cd to enter the directory, and then type the command.

Compile.

Sudo make clean

Sudo make

4, the most critical sentence, if there is no wireless after reboot, enter these sentences again.

Sudo modprobe lib80211

Sudo modprobe cfg80211

Sudo insmod wl.ko

5. Through the above three commands, your wireless driver has been installed to see if the wireless sign appears in the upper right corner of your computer. It is not over yet. Go on. Otherwise, the wireless will be gone after reboot.

Sudo cp / boot/initrd.img- `uname-r` somewheresafe (uname-r is used to view the kernel version of Linux)

Sudo update-initramfs-u

Sudo cp wl.ko

6. / lib/modules/ `uname-r` / kernel/drivers/net/wireless sudo depmod-a

Then add the wl module to the startup module, that is, add wl at the end of the / etc/modules file

Use the command: sudo cp wl.ko / etc/modules

/ lib/modules/3.5.0-48-generic/updates/dkms deletes the wl.ko file in the updates/dkms directory. Where 3.5.0-48-generic is my kernel version that I got using the command uname-r. This place is yours. Command: sudo rm wl.ko

7. Enter again: sudo depmod-a
