Broadcom network card doesn't connect to wireless network
#12
Now that all is well with your wifi, open up synaptic and locate the Debian package/s that work/s with your NIC and copy the package to a USB drive. Next time you install or upgrade or switch distros any Debian based installer will find the package from your USB and enable your wifi during the initial installation or upgrade. I've done it that way for many years with my Debian office server. It works like pre-seeding. It's easier than dealing with brcm binaries (usually rpm's anyway) from their website. Requires no terminal work.
