Linux Lite 3.0 64 bit does not FULLY see my internal wifi adapter

[N4RPS]

Hello!

To work for as many different applications as possible, Broadcom adapters need proprietary firmware that loads itself at every boot.
Since this firmware IS proprietary, neither Ubuntu nor Jerry can legally bundle it with the distro.

Using a wired network connection (or your tethered phone, if you have data service on it and your phone supports this), try this first:

In a terminal window [CTRL-ALT-T], type or copy-and-paste the following:

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
sudo modprobe wl

Reboot, and it THAT fails, uninstall the wl driver you just installed:

Code:

sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source

and install the Broadcom STA driver, as mentioned in the reference article below:

Hope this helps...
