wifi still now working

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 14:45:05

A wifi, broadcom: BCM4306, I already loaded the firmware, after exec modprobe b43 do now show any error, but the wireless interface still not avalaible

Trilby · 2014-08-12 14:51:04

Please follow the broadcom wiki page and provide the diagnostic information is guides you towards. The first piece of data would be the output of the following command:

lspci -vnn | grep -i net

Have you checked whether you need b43 or b43legacy? Have you blacklisted the other? Have you installed the firmware?

I already follow the steps in broadcom, remeber, I'm offline and in installation time. The output of the command is:

06:06.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4320] (rev 03)

I'm sorry if I'm misreading this, but how would I remember any of this? You haven't explained. Provide background. Is this in the installation media? Is this in an installed system?

If you did follow the wiki page, show that you have. Did you conclude from your output as I did that you should need the b43legacy driver and you will need to blacklist b43? Did you install the firmware as asked in my previous post?

Please provide the information we need to help, we don't know where you are in the installation or usage of archlinux. All we can know is what you've written in your two posts here - both of which have been exceedingly sparse.

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 15:20:14

OK, forgive me, I do now understand so much how to privde the info. I already read the wiki and some other post here, that do not work for me. Just right now I'm trying to blacklist the other and trye legacy but do now known how to do it.

I used:

$ b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta.o

where wl_apsta.o is a driver downloaded from http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/br … .0.tar.bz2

What should I do now? How could I blacklist the b43 and use legacy's instead

ewaller · 2014-08-12 15:21:49

So, you know you must use b43.
What are the output of:
lsmod
journalctl | grep \[Ff\]irmware
uname -a
pacman -Qi linux
and
iw list

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 15:24:18

modprobe -b b43
modprobe b43legacy

dmesg say this:

[ 6601.742553 ] Broadcom 43xx-legacy driver loaded [ Features: PLID ]

:-/

interface still now appear

I am certain the firmware was not installed in the appropriate directory.

Install this b43 firmware from the AUR using makepkg and pacman -U

Edit, never mind. We were posting at the same time. What was the output of the Journalctl command I gave you.
BTW, I really think you need to be using the b43 driver for that part.

sorry, my connection is slow I can not reload so much, after commit the last answer, see the ewaller's question. There you have the outputs:

$ iw list

returns nothing

Yeah, I was right. Install the firmware from the AUR. Blacklist b43-legacy. rmmod b43-legacy and modprobe b43, then rerun that journalctl command. We want to see a message that the firmware loaded.

Trilby · 2014-08-12 15:42:44

My appologies if I mislead with suggesting you might need b43legacy - with limited information it was hard to differentiate, and different versions of that card do require 'legacy'.

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 15:43:44

man I have not connection in that machine, and a very narrow bandiwth here (can NOT use AUR) I already have theb43 firmware here, after run your two command, the computer freeze, rebooting....

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 15:50:25

Trilby, my gratitude for you helping intentions are biggers than your appolgies

Anyway, after load b43, jornulctl |grep irmware do not show nothing new, just the latest lines at boot time when b43 was not in the system

I am loath to do this, but, what the heck....

The firmware must be in /usr/lib/firmware/b43 If it is not there, it will not work.
On my system, there are 121 files in there. I have no idea where on your system you have placed these files.
Here they are, with the MD5 Sums:

I really, really suggest you not install anything without using pacman, but it is your system.

ok, the firmware is now in there, I just put it.

The output for jornual, is from boot time, now I run md5sum /usr/lib/firmware/b43*

and it show something like you

I'm trying to install arch, I'm in the boot cd

ewaller · 2014-08-12 16:38:17

... does lsmod show the b43 driver? If not, modprobe it. Does the journalctl output now show the firmware as being loaded?

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 16:54:32

yes, is in the lsmod list but journualctl does not output nothing about it :-/

Let's back up a couple steps.
Are you running from the install media, or are you running from a new installation?
Do you have a wired network available?

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 17:09:11

I'm running a USB device with archiso, the boot cd. I had not performed the installation yet because can not connect to internet. In the topic named "ethernet no-carrier" you just give up with the problem. Wich mean: "I have not any kind of connection"

Doh! I missed that I was having two conversations with you

Do you have a smart phone that you can tether by USB? If so, and you can associate it with your wireless router, we can use it as an interface to install Arch. Then we will work on getting the firmware installed properly.

Uranio-235 · 2014-08-12 17:32:35

nop, I have not, my phone is an stupid iPhone 2g. So, I will make the same solution that I post you in the other topic... some thing supernatural are conspirating against my instalation...

YES!!! a friend give me an android 4 and is tethered, but wiki says that I need a package for connect

Nope.

Associate the phone with your wireless.
Connect the phone by USB
Enable USB tethering on the phone
A new interface will appear on your computer (look at the output of ip link
Run dhcpcd on the computer to get an address.
Install Arch, including the b43 firmware from the AUR

Slithery · 2014-08-12 18:08:25

You shouldn't need to install any packages to tether with an Android device, it should just work

Plug the phone in to your computer and then go to the settings menu and switch on tethering. A new network device should show up in dmesg...

...
[47982.486562] usb 8-1: USB disconnect, device number 4
[47982.718860] usb 8-1: new high-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci
[47982.906368] usbcore: registered new interface driver cdc_ether
[47982.928250] rndis_host 8-1:1.0 usb0: register 'rndis_host' at usb-0000:00:1d.7-1, RNDIS device, 2a:9e:2b:a2:a5:a5
[47982.928285] usbcore: registered new interface driver rndis_host
[47982.940006] systemd-udevd[16727]: renamed network interface usb0 to enp0s29f7u1

Then just restart dhcpd to get an address...

systemctl restart dhcpcd

Edit - Not quick enough
