yes, I had problems with it even in Ubuntu
Oh please, yes! USB wireless!

Well, this is an issue of net_server which sometimes doesnāt bring up ethernet interface.
hello waddlesplashā¦
I have a Broadcom "BCM 4401-B0 ethernet deviceā¦
Device: 170c
it is not recognized at all!
Is there any hope?
Anyway WIFI is working very well now (iprowifi3945) it even did auto connect before hrev 52124ā¦
so just like to knowā¦
thanks very good work with the wifi part so farā¦ happy! Thanks a lot Waddlesplashā¦
Hi,
I have a Kodlix N42-D and was able to boot into Haiku by setting the boot mode to Legacy, enabling CSM (I think those are the correct three letters), and setting all the things under that option to Legacy.
Itās a Pentium N4200 system with the Apollo Lake chipset.
The Wi-Fi device is:
device Network controller [2|80|0]
vendor 8086: Intel Corporation
device 3165: Wireless 3165
Which, I believe, should be covered by the iwm driver.
Ethernet is:
device Network controller (Ethernet controller) [2|0|0]
vendor 10ec: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
device 8168: RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
That should be covered (I think) by the re driver.
However, using:
Haiku shredder 1 hrev52124 Jul 19 2018 21:03:54 x86_64 x86_64 Haiku
neither device shows up.
Am I wrong about this? If not, does anyone have any recommendations for getting either of them to work?
Thanks!
Yes, those both should work I believe. Please post a syslog somewhere and Iāll take a look.
rtl8139 ethernet works on rev52130 on 32-bit.

Seems to work sometimes, but disconnects and reconfigures quite a bit. However, this was after a restart. Starting up the system after install of Haiku and wifi started to work, but then stopped and had to restart.

I tried doing the Internet Speed Test on Google on the computer, but got a error: āThe test canāt be completed due to a problem with the network.ā However, Iām able to go to websites.
This computer is far-ish away from the modem, so Iāll try using it closer up to see if itās a signal strength issue (Iām not sure though, because other websites load pretty quickly).
Edit: It also failed to get updates from SoftwareUpdater.
Edit2: Doing it a second time, and it seems to be working so farā¦ got disconnect and reconfigure notifications again, but the updater hasnāt errored out yet, so weāll seeā¦ Been sitting there for a while with 0 bar movement (on software updater) and itās disconnected and reconnected twice now.
Note: this is a different computer from the one in which I tested the rtl8139 ethernet.
Disable HT. Check the user guide wlan section.

Thanks. It seemed to be working at first, however, eventually I got the disconnect and reconnect issue once again. It also seems that after reconnecting, I can view websites and ping ip addresses, but the HaikuDepot and SoftwareUpdate just stop downloading.
I also have the BCM4312 NIC in my Dell Inspiron (14e4:4315). Would like to get it going in Haiku. waddlesplash, if you need someone to test an implementation of it, I could do so and report back.
I have the same NIC in a netbook, and hereās the answer:
It would certainly be great if @waddlesplash could connect remotely to that netbook and tinker with the hardware, but Iām not sure itās even possible in this case.
Yes, I saw that comment about the firmware - which is why Iām saying, if he wants to compile it, and perhaps try to commit it to the source for a new nightly build, I could test it that way. ā¦There is a way to withdraw/delete commits if they donāt work or arenāt used anymore, isnāt there?
Iām not sure you understand. Itās not just āadd some files to the repository, get them to compile, and ask you to test.ā Even for PCI-only devices like the idualwifi7260 driver I added, it took about two dozen attempts tweaking firmware, versions, interrupts glue, timings, etc. for the driver to actually initialize the hardware, and then there were still some crashes I had to fix before it fully worked. AFAICT, those Broadcom chips are PCI + a proprietary Broadcom interconnect bus, so Iād have to add another bus system to the FreeBSD layer. Itās not something that I could really do without access to the hardware.

Network works āmostly fineā, that is, DHCP does not work, have to use static IP. I can feel the web browsing speed (web+, qupzilla) is much slower compared to firefox on the linuxos (BM to BM comparison on the same BM). And I canāt get network preferences to keep more than 3 server IP in the DNS settings list to improve routing. I have a particular network setup.
Thanks for your dedication.
Regards,
RR
hmmā¦ I supose is the same valid for BCM 4311?
Tried one of the latest nightlies over the weekend and canāt get WiFi to work on my old faithfull netbook.
No, because B43 depends on restricted firmware that means it needs too much work to implement it and that doesnāt imply your wi-fi will work. Perhaps you should try some gnu/linux where that driver is supported on the restricted repos.
