Ubuntu 12.10 wireless shutdown issue

linux-howto

http://askubuntu.com – When I try to shutdown or restart my laptop it hangs at the point where it says "* will now halt" but never turns off. After some digging I have traced the root of the problem back to the wireless adapter. If I turn the wireless off before shutting down the system powers off correctly. The wirless card is a broadcom BCM4313 and the system appears to be using the Broadcom STA wl driver. It currently has modules wl and bcma loaded but I have tried disabling both using "modprobe -r" and trying to use the other but the problem still occurs. Can anybody advise me on what I can try next?

Stories similar to Ubuntu 12.10 wireless shutdown issue

I have a hp dv6-7014nr and I just installed ubuntu on it and after some trouble I have my wireless working for the most part. The one last problem I have is that wireless N still is not working, I can only access G networks.

My wireless card is the BCM4313 broadcom wireless adapter.I am using the "bcmwl-kernel-source" driver.

I brought a samsung netbook with a broadcom Wireless adapter BCM4313 [14e4:4727]. I did a clean install of ubuntu presise Pangolin 12.04 LTS and my issue with it is that i keep on being disconnected every minutes then it reconects it's selfs as fast as it had been dsconected. i tryes the sta driver and the open source driver and both of them gave me the same results.

I am new to Ubuntu and I have just installed Ubuntu 11.10. The problem is that the BCM4313 wireless card keeps disconnecting all the time.

From the Additional drivers window, I can see that the "Broadcom STA wireless driver" is installed.

I would appreciate any help at the moment as I am thinking to return back to Windows.

Hi I just deleted my windows XP and installed Ubuntu 9.10 earlier this morning. I used wired connection to get drivers for my wireless network card.

When I did lspci, the very last line states:

Network Controller: Broadcom Coporation BCM4311 902.11b/g WLAN(rev 01)

i followed the info on a forum to get my netgear n300 wireless usb adapter to work and i installed the broadcom driver for it and it works fine until i rebot my system. everytime i turn my computer back on it wont recognize my wireless card and i have to go into ndisgtk to install it again. not a big issue but it is annoying to have to reinstall the driver. if anyone can help that would be great.
