Try broadcom-sta-dkms. |

As Gamb1t said, you should try broadcom-sta-dkms - but also, you don't need the full kernel sources (nor does bcmwl-kernel-source exist in our repositories) - bcmwl-kernel-source is the ubuntu package for broadcom-sta-dkms... That said, you should only need the firmware for Broadcom devices with the latest kernel, and not need the sta driver, which will likely not do what you expect it to, as it's Broadcom's proprietary driver and not mac80211 based. |
|
Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling <= 2019.2), these legacy versions are no longer supported. Please could you see if you are able to replicate this issue with the latest version of Kali Linux - https://www.kali.org/downloads/? If you are still facing the same problem, feel free to re-open the ticket. If you choose to do this, could you provide more information to the issue you are facing, and also give information about your setup? |
