Hello friends
For a laptop HP Pavilion g4-1387la was installed Debian 12 Desktop
The ethernet and wifi connections are possible.
But when only the WIFI is used (no ethernet cable connected) exists the problem that the internet speed is very slow. I put the same WIFI connection settings according with other laptops in the same LAN, all of them based with other Linux distributions. Of course the ipv4 is unique
The wireless card is as follows (let me know if you need more data - pls indicate me the command execute to share the info):
I had a similar problem about a WIFI connection through PeppermintOS based on Debian according with:
Impossible to do Wifi connection - password never accepted
The point is that theoretically the solution is install:
* firmware-b43-installer
* firmware-b43legacy-installer
Now, according with the 2 following links both appear on the contrib repo
* Package firmware-b43-installer
* Package firmware-b43legacy-installer
Thus the goal is get both packages to be installed. To accomplish this goal was done the following tasks:
In the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory was executed the nano debian-backports.list command and was added the following line:
Finally was executed the apt update command.
And for complete information, as follows the content of the /etc/apt/sources.list file
Now, I executed the following set of commands (just in case the OS was restarted):
apt install
apt search
apt search -t bookworm-backports
apt-cache search -t bookworm-backports
apt install -t bookworm-backports
BTW was used -t bookworm-backports according with the How to enable Debian 12 Backports repository tutorial and because was declared deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm-backports .... in the custom .list file. I mean the bookworm-backports part
Thus so far is not possible install these two packages
How to reach that goal?
