broadcom-wl's Issues

Wireless Monitor

Sorry for posting this in the wrong place, but I need some help with Debian Kali Linux.

I use BCM43228 a/b/g/n, and there is a patch : http://ix.io/9DV that lets you enable the monitoring.

Here appears the problem. By installing this pack[broadcom-wl form the github] and applying the additional patch , I am able to turn the monitor on [echo 1 > /proc/brcm_monitor0 ] but it contains many errors from the compiling and also there are some functions that don't work correctly.[aircrack-ng , reaver and many more]

I wonder if someone could help me apply correctly the patch. Patch name was this: wl_linux.patch and it was located in /src/wl/sys/ from the extracted file where wl_linux.c_ file exists.

After downloading the original .deb [broadcom-sta-dkms][the latest v6] from the Debian packages and turned up the monitor systems [echo 1 > /proc/brcm_monitor0 ] i get a system crash, and i have to reboot.

I checked many sites and only WL can help me installing the driver.

The only thing I want to do is activating the monitoring and get aircrack-ng and reaver working.

Source thread that helped me : http://www.kalilinux.net/community/threads/how-to-make-broadcom-bcm43142-wireless-card-work-in-kali.814/

Thank you!

Solution : Just upgrade your kernel to 3.18+ for BCM43228 or BCM43227

Error when patching on opensuse-13.1

I am using opensuse-13.1 with 3.14 kernel

Everything works except that the patch for makefile ends up in error:

lowks@lowkster:~/src/broadcom-wl> patch -p1 < makefile.patch
can't find file to patch at input line 3
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

compiling with kernel-3.15.x fails
