#HOW TO INSTALL BROADCOM DRIVERS ON KALI LINUX BLUETOOTH#

Bluetooth coexistence protection, if the bluetooth card is physically connected to the wireless chip.Packet injection (with radiotap no FCS injection currently though hardware supports it - a radiotap flag is being discussed for this).In-Hardware MAC address filter (b43 only impossible on b43legacy hardware).In-Hardware traffic de/encryption (relieves your CPU).'Monitor while operating' and multiple monitor interfaces.BCM4321: some cards do not work in DMA mode (PIO is needed).Using PIO (module param) can be used as workaround for 2.6.Д«CM4318 chipset: AP mode does not work because of packet loss in high transmission rates. LP-PHY devices: DMA errors on some machines with kernel 2.6.

Feel free to notify the devs via mailing list and/or IRC channel of newer variants

Any other Broadcom chipsets not listed above are not supported.

BCM4331 - chipset uses unsupported HT PHY.

BCM4313 - chipset uses unsupported LCN PHY.

BCM43224, BCM43225 - that are chipsets on BCMA bus, work in progress.

The 802.11a part of the 4311 is not supported.Д«CM4320 USB - not supported by b43/b43legacy, try rndis_wlan.

BCM4312 (linux-kernel 2.6.32 is needed, 2.6.33 or latter is recommended).

BCM4311 rev 2 (only the 2.4GHz part) starting with 2.6.25.

It does not mean you can run two or more drivers simultaneously without unloading at least one of the drivers mentioned as the drivers conflict.

#HOW TO INSTALL BROADCOM DRIVERS ON KALI LINUX DRIVER#

Often the PCI-ID equals the Chip-ID, but that's not always the case and it's a constant source of confusion.ДЄlso please note that any listed devices on the device listing noting more than one driver support separated by a forward slash '/' means that you can only use one of the mentioned drivers simultaneously. The Chip-ID is printed to the kernel log by the b43 driver on startup (example): Note that the PCI-ID is _not_ in direct correlation with the Chip-ID. In the table below you can check whether your device is supported.

You should ignore anything, except the last part inside of the brackets. The command will result in a string similiar to this example:Д 001:01:01.0 Network controller : Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) Whether a PCI device is supported by the b43/b43legacy driver can be found out with the lspci command: Make sure that if you want to use b43 in favour of broadcom-sta and your Broadcom wireless chipset is supported from the device list you will need to either remove or unload the broadcom-wl driver first prior to using b43 by following: How do I use b43/b43legacy driver instead of broadcom-wl? The b43/b43legacy driver will never support this device.Д«43/b43legacy drivers conflicts with broadcom-wl otherwise known as Broadcom's 802.11 Linux STA driver or broadcom-sta. If you have an USB device with Broadcom chip, please try the rndis_wlan driver. Please read this whole document and the FAQ before asking any questions to the developers.ДЄll Broadcom chips require firmware that is loaded onto the wireless chip before it can operate.
