Wi-Fi with BCM43xx HW

[Subzwari, Junaid]

Hi all,

 

I have downloaded 7.10 onto my laptop and am having trouble getting my
Wi-Fi to work.  I've followed the instructions from the following thread
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty and it
worked for a few minutes and it stopped working, i.e. I cannot connect
to my wireless network anymore.  When I execute sudo iwlist ethX scan I
can never find my network.  I know my wireless is working cause my
Windows machine finds it and connects to it.  One piece of information
that's interesting is that when I do iwconfig, it comes back with the
typical iwconfig info but the AP field is set to invalid.  Does anyone
know how to fix this issue?  I'm a newbie to linux and Ubuntu and very
eager to start learning.  I actually bought this laptop for that sole
reason.  Thanks for your help.
