Wifi Broadcom BCM43162
#2
It's not supported in the kernel and there are no drivers for it. Your best path is via ndiswrapper.

1. Open a Terminal do:

Code:
sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper

2. Download

Windows Driver - https://driverslab.ru/download/wifi/only..._317_3.zip

3.

Right click zip file, Extract here.

4.

Click into extracted folder, then the 64 folder.

5.

Open a Terminal (right click Open Terminal here), in the 64 folder and do:

Code:
sudo ndiswrapper -i bcmwl63.inf

Reboot. If still not there, then you're unfortunately out of options for this poorly supported chipset.
Download your free copy of Linux Lite today.
