b43-phy0 ERROR: FOUND UNSUPPORTED PHY (Analog 8, Type 4, Revision 4) -> BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:432b] (rev 01) not working on HP Dv6 1030us laptop in Ubuntu 9.04 when using Linux kernel 2.6.28-13-generic #45-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 30 22:12:12 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Asked by Jeahavee

I got my Ethernet connection working. I disconnected it recently to go downstairs. NO Wireless at all. It know about the card. However for some reason I can't get or find anything to connect to my wireless net work. Works on 7 and Vista. My HP Dv6 1030us has that indicter that let's me know my wireless and bluetooth is working. It's OJ which means it's not working, but my bluetooth keyboard and mouse is working fine as you can't see me typing with it right now. So Ubuntu finds the Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01) just find with lspci | grep Broadcom\ Corporation but how do I get my Wireless working. Need more information just ask (and tell me how to get it) I'm sure this is a simple solve.

Hi,

Please first connect your network card to the wireless router using an ethernet cable (also known as a LAN cable).

In order to gather essential troubleshooting information about your wireless card, please follow this procedure:

Step 1: Open Terminal from "Applications->Accessories->Terminal"

Step 2: Run the following command. The command STARTS with the word sudo and ENDS with the word restart. So please copy-paste the ENTIRE command below into a Terminal, press enter, then enter password when sudo asks for password, then press enter again.

sudo lshw -C network; sudo iwlist scanning; cat /etc/network/interfaces; cat /etc/lsb-release; lspci -nn; lsusb; uname -a; dmesg | grep ound; dmesg | grep b43; iwconfig; sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

Step 3: Please post results (copy/paste terminal output) on this thread

Regards,

Mark

I think you are experiencing this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/376259

You will need to boot the 2.6.28-11-generic kernel in Ubuntu 9.04 in order to have a chance of getting your wireless card to work. There are bugs/regressions in kernel 2.6.28-13-generic that are preventing your wireless chipset to work.

Also see Matt LaPlante's answer here:

Okay yeah lol I see the wired/wireless choice now. Now I wanna know how to set up a wireless conncetion both automatically and manually. Is there a good application for it.

Also in the screen shot why is it saying never for wireless and "8 mintues to go" that what it says for wired.

Also sending this message confirm wireless to be working.

Hi,

There should be an option in NetworkManager to automatically connect to your wireless router during startup.

Here is what NetworkManager looks like:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetworkManager

It should be in the top right corner of your Ubuntu desktop, in the Ubuntu panel.

As your wireless issue seems to be solved now, can you maybe set this thread to status 'solved"?

Regards,

Mark
