BT5-64-Gnome WPA2/WEP/Wired internet failing

[enidoi]

Whenever i try to auth to a WEP/WPA2 or even open AP it says bad password or in the case of an open system it says can not obtain ip address.

all of this was working fine in bt4 (dell inspirion 1545)

the wired connection will work on a reboot for a short period of time but once the wlan is touched it all goes down.

this is all a HDD install, clean install out of box and i cant find any thing in the search .. configured the wpa-supplicant config didnt work .. opened up a wireless network with no password and it was still unable to connect .. every other device is able to over the air or wired.

any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

[Work Around/SOLVED]
i switched from the BCM4312 rev 01 to my usb wg111v3 and everything worked.. now to find that work around to get this onboard to play nice.

I had a similair problem and I searched out and found that it may be the Backtrack version you are using ( the 64 bits) try to download the 32 bits version and install It will work fine and plus I doubt that you have more then 4 gigs of ram as it's a laptop. Backtrack 4 wasn't crashing because it was a 32 bits version.

Again, i maybe wrong but you should give it a try!

so the onboard Broadcom Corp BCM4312 rev 01 is the problem (per usual) i switched back to my USB WG111v3 and set it to use wlan1 and it connectd and auth'd no problem .. now to figure out how to get that bcm4312 to work
