The Broadcom b43 BCM43228 wireless adapter can be installed on Fedora Linux using the open-source b43 driver.
Here’s how you can install the b43 driver on Fedora:
- Install the required packages:
sudo dnf install kernel-devel
sudo dnf install broadcom-wl
- Load the b43 module:
sudo modprobe b43
- Verify the installation by checking the output of the following command:
dmesg | grep b43
- Make the b43 module load automatically at boot time by adding it to the list of modules in the
/etc/modules-load.d/directory:
sudo echo "b43" > /etc/modules-load.d/b43.conf
Once the b43 driver is installed and loaded, you should be able to connect to wireless networks using the network manager on your Fedora system. If you encounter any issues, you can try unloading and reloading the b43 module or restarting your system.
