Description of problem: I have a Broadcom wifi card (lspci reports as BCM43225). This card is supported by the broadcom-wl driver. The driver loads and I can see the card as eth1. I can use iwconfig to get info from the driver but when I run iwlist eth1 scan I always get the return "eth1 No scan results". Subsequently NetworkManager can never see networks to connect to. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time in x86_64 and i386 (LiveCD and Full Install). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install 'broadcom-wl, kmod-wl, kmod-wl-$(uname -r) 2. modprobe wl 3. iwlist eth1 scan Actual results: "eth1 No scan results" Expected results: List of available wifi networks and their info Additional info: rfkill does not seem to load at all for this driver. Running "rfkill list" returns and error saying that the rfkill module is not loaded. Once I manually modprobe rfkill and run the "rfkill list" command again now that it is loaded I get no results and it just drops to the next line. # iwlist eth1 scan eth1 No scan results # iwconfig eth1 eth1 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"" Nickname:"" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Bit Rate:16 Mb/s Tx-Power:24 dBm Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Managementmode:All packets received Link Quality=5/5 Signal level=0 dBm Noise level=0 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 lspci -nnvv shows: 07:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43225 802.11b/g/n [14e4:4357] (rev 01) Subsystem: Foxconn International, Inc.

I'm sorry, we do not support broadcom-wl driver, you have ask driver vendor for help.
