package: bcm43xx-fwcutter (1:005-2) [contrib]
Dear friends,
some weeks ago I posted this in an userforum. A lot of reading, but no
answer / solution to the problem . I'd like to use my laptop normally under
DEBIAN, but the wireless-LAN issue keeps me from doing so.
I upgraded DEBIAN last weekend , but the problem stays the same . Is there
any solution to make my bcm4318 Broadcom chip not only running, but make it
useful.
Thanks herbert herwig

| I succesfully installed Debiann SID on my Amilo 1655g and was able to |
| make the wlan run. |
| I run wpa-supplicant with wpa2. |
| First it seems that I could not get any IP-Adress from my AVM-FRITZ |
| router, but then I realized that there was an "attenuation low" |
| problem. |
| Putting the laptop directly beneath my latop -it works. |
| But it works only for a distance of about 1 meter - so it isn't |
| really usable. |
| With that other OS I can do my work at the other end of my flat - |
| more than 12 meters. |
| Any suggestions on how to raise the sensibility of the antenna ? |
| Tried different bcmw5l native driver - no effect. |
