Manjaro - broadcom-wl not working












1















When I run lspci -vnn -d 14e4: I get:



05:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:43a0] (rev 03)
Subsystem: Broadcom Inc. and subsidiaries BCM4360 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:0619]
Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 10
Memory at df400000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=32K]
Memory at df200000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=2M]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel modules: bcma


I tried yaourt -S broadcom-wl (which is supposed to be the alternative driver for this card) and rebooted but there is still no option for wifi. I have also installed broadcom-wl-dkms, b43-firmware, b43-firmware-classic (Which manjaro seems to come with by default).



It is important to note that this wireless card worked with Ubuntu when I enabled the wireless driver for it.

          As it turns out, it's because yaourt gave me the wrong version for my kernel. I used pacman -S broadcom-wl and chose the package with the correct prefix (I have kernel 4.19 so I chose linux419-broadcom-wl
