[SOLVED] DELL XPS 13 - Broadcom BCM4352 - No Network detected

Hi !

I'm in the process of building a dual boot on the new Dell XPS13. I'm still beginning with linux in general so it takes time, but I make progress everyday.
I've been stuck a few days with the wifi configuration (cannot detect any network) and I hope it's the right place to post.

After installing broadcom-wl from AUR, lspci -k gives me :

02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03)
    Subsystem: Dell Device 0019
    Kernel driver in use: wl
    Kernel modules: wl

I use GNOME3.16 and I have NetworkManager.service started,

ip link status is the following :

3: wlp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether ac:d1:b8:c0:bf:17 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

However, NetworkManager finds no network, and wifi-menu gives :

# wifi-menu wlp2s0
Scanning for networks... failed
No networks found
#

dmesg is full of :

[ 4887.965597] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_scan : WLC_SCAN error (-22)
[ 4951.029460] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_scan : WLC_SCAN error (-22)
[ 5014.092931] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_scan : WLC_SCAN error (-22)
[ 5077.103067] ERROR @wl_cfg80211_scan : WLC_SCAN error (-22)

and journalctl -b | grep wl* returns :

Apr 29 01:07:30 xps wpa_supplicant[384]: wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED ret=-22 retry=1
Apr 29 01:07:30 xps kernel: ERROR @wl_cfg80211_scan : WLC_SCAN error (-22)
Apr 29 01:08:33 xps wpa_supplicant[384]: wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-FAILED ret=-22 retry=1
Apr 29 01:08:33 xps kernel: ERROR @wl_cfg80211_scan : WLC_SCAN error (-22)


I'm not sure where to head to with this. Do you have any advice or solution to this ?

Solved with this. Output of rfkill list was misleading.
