I am using Dell Vostro 3400 PC. Previously I was running Ubuntu 11.10 version . Recenty I have upgraded it to 12.04 version. The sad part is wireless is disabled now and I am unable to connect internet.

How to enable wireless?

  • Have you connected (temporarily) by Ethernet, run updates and searched for additional drivers? If so, then we need more details (as above).

Actually I followed 2 step to enable wireless in my PC

  • Step 1 : Removed the bcmwl-kernel-source package

    sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source
    
  • Step 2 : Installed the firmware-b43-installer package.

    sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
    

And then rebooted my PC .

Finally got my work done. :)
