Broadcom BCM4311 Wireless not working
I upgrade to 11.10 and I can no longer connect. I'm very much a newbie when it comes to linux, so any explanation would be much appreciated.
After upgrading to 11.10, the startup screen started saying "waiting for network configuration" and after a minute or so it would then say "booting without network configuration".
I have a dell vostro 1000 (not sure the year)
After typing
sudo rfkill list
I get
0: dell-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: yes
any suggestions?
and
sudo rfkill unblock all
doesn't change anything.
The Network controller is BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN
and the Ethernet controller is a BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX
I now believe that the problem with my wired connection is a faulty Ethernet cable or physical hardware that connects to the Ethernet cable as I got the wired connection to work but is sensitive to being physically touched, I which case I would still like to get the wireless working
