Alright, Im still new to Ubuntu and this has been a frustrating process as I imagined it would be.
Heres the problem, I have a Hp g6 with the broadcom BCM4313. I can get it to connect sometimes by following all sorts of other threads, but when I do the connection speed is 1 Mbps. All of a sudden though, I dont even have the option to connect to a Wifi signal anymore. It doesnt recognize any wifi signals or anything.
After reboot the only way to even connect to wifi is to run sudo modprobe brcmsmac
Any help is greatly appreciated. If you need more info please let me know.
Edit: After fresh Reboot:
