Hi!

Please see this documentation from Debian:
https://wiki.debian.org/wl#Broadcom_...vices_.28wl.29

Best regards,
HMW

I tried it but it didn't work.

Ok. But "it didn't work" doesn't say much. What (if any) error messages did you get. What part was not successful?

Best regards,
HMW

The last step , https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse
What exactly m i supposed to do?
EDIT:
I restarted the computer and it showed up but wifite is not working now!!

Code:

 [+] scanning for wireless devices...
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0...^C

Hi...

Which last step was that? Also, please open a terminal and post the results of these commands...

Code:

dmesg | grep -iC 3 "wlan0"

Code:

lsmod

Code:

sudo lshw -C network

Code:

rfkill list

Disclaimer: Be careful with commands including "sudo" especially, as it will essentially allow root access to your system. Mistakes could possibly damage or even destroy your OS.

Regards...

Hi...

Out of curiosity, are there any entries for wlan2 in dmesg? I'm not seeing anything in your report that stands out, at least for me, other than the constant "link down."

Code:

dmesg | grep -iC 3 "wlan2"

Also, what message(s), if any, do you receive from this command...

Code:

sudo ifconfig wlan0 up

Regards...

Knight_Rider · 06-03-2016, 01:37 AM

Your lspci shows:

Code:

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142 802.11b/g/n [14e4:4365] (rev 01)

And dmesg shows:

Code:

[   26.974923] wlan0: Broadcom BCM4365 802.11 Hybrid Wireless Controller 6.30.223.248 (r487574)

You seem to be using the wrong driver. You need to install the correct (BCM43142) driver for your card. As outlined here:
https://wiki.debian.org/wl#Broadcom_...vices_.28wl.29

Knight_Rider · 06-03-2016, 03:45 AM

I'm unable to do it , How am i supposed to find the right driver?

At this point I do not know how to help you. I am sorry. I have Broadcom chips in several of my computers, and they are all working after I have followed the various wikis on how to get up and running.

This looks strange though:

Code:

[   27.123572] systemd-udevd[1308]: renamed network interface wlan0 to wlan2

What happens if you try:

Code:

ifconfig wlan2 up

I am pretty much just guessing at this point though. Again, Broadcom chips generally work (at least in my experience), I have never been through this much of a hassle before.

Best of luck!
HMW

Knight_Rider · 06-03-2016, 05:09 AM

I changed wlan2 to wlan0 by changing it in some file but the problem is wifite...airmon-ng or fluxion , Nothing is working now.
so

Code:

wlan2: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

Code:

 [+] scanning for wireless devices...
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0... done
 [+] enabling monitor mode on wlan0...^C

Its working fine at my home but when i try to do it somewhere else it doesn't work. maybe its because of different ISP ?

Hi...

You probably should change it back.

Please read the information at the page John VV linked to below, apparently Broadcom's drivers don't support monitor mode. I didn't realize this myself until now. It might explain the error messages you've been receiving.

Regards...

John VV · 06-03-2016, 01:31 PM

Knight_Rider

you might want to READ!!! the kali docs about Broadcom chips

and wireless in particular !!!!

this would have saved you a LOT of trouble !!!
