Greetings all.
I have a laptop with a Broadcom 801.11/n and Back-Track doesn't recognize it. I also installed pockey.gtk and it doesn't find anyway.
While looking to find the MAC Address of my computer as it appears to a wireless network, it was recommended i run ifconfig.
Having executed that command in the Terminal, i noticed that, unlike my other machine, the connected network seemed to be listed as an Ethernet, even though the built in wireless card is the thing i am currently using to post this.
ifconfig output:
lewisgoddard@t42:~$ ifc
I can connect with wired connection in my living room but I can't with my wireless card.
I'm pretty sure card is ok because I got a new one and driver works fine.
I had Ubuntu 12.04 then I downgraded it to 11.10 and I have the same problem over and over again.
I searched all over the forums and I can't find an answer.
ifconfig
:eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 40:61:86:35:11:b0

I did a first time install of Ubuntu 11.10 using Wubi and the ethernet connection on my laptop. (so I know that the ethernet interface is working and connected correctly). I finished the install and booted up Ubuntu. The wireless connection works find, but I am not able to get the wired connection to work.
I have a USB wireless adapter D-Link DWA-131.
I also have backtrack 5R1 on Vmware.
I installed the driver on the system, and here are some outputs:
