Hello All,

 I have a Dell Vostro 1550 laptop. i3 core, 64 bit, 8gb ram etc etc. I had a nic interface, but some how the wired nic is not working. So I am trying to use the BCM 4313 wireless chip, of this system, to connect to the internet.

 I have Cent os 6.5 (64 bit) installed with the required libraries and kernel sources, headers etc.

I got the source code of the driver, hybrid-v35_64-nodebug-pcoem-6_30_223_141.tar.gz. Extracted the tar, and compiled.

Normal compilation errors:
# make                                       ## Errors
# make API=CFG80211          ## Errors

# make API=WEXT     ---------> Compiles fine.

# rmmod bcma

echo "blacklist bcma" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

# modprobe lib80211
# modprobe cfg80211
# insmod wl.ko

Network Manager shows all surrounding wireless network, and I select my wifi network and enter the key.


Authentication required by wireless network (Dialog Box)

Passwords or encryption keys are required to access the wireless network 'giri'


Wireless security :  WEP 40/128-bit key (HEX or ASCII)

Key  :               *********************

When I hit the <Connect> button of this dialog box, the network manager shows the rotating signal in the network connection at the top of the Linux desktop status bar. But after a few seconds, once again this dialog-box "Authentication required by wireless network" pops up, and keeps asking me for the key/password.

Rhel 6 (64 bit), I built the same driver, and make (only just make - without parameters) for compiling the driver, created the driver, without any problems. Insmod the driver, and upon selecting the wifi network and entering the key, rhel 6 64 bit version, perfectly connected to the net, on this same laptop.

Can anyone let me know, why the centos 6.5 kernel/Network Manager is asking for the (wireless security) key every few seconds, again and again, and not connecting to the internet.  And if someone can please inform why a make without parameters and make API=CFG80211, fails to compile, that will be very helpful.



Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Giri

You are really asking the wrong crowd. Basically, you are using a
proprietary driver. The compiler errors clearly show those sources are
outdated and not matching cfg80211 api.

I can only offer an alternative here. Download a recent backports
package from [1] and build and install that.
