Comment 24 for bug 1308348

I also have the same problem with a fresh Lubuntu 14.04 i386 install on a netbook HP mini 110 1140ep.
My wifi card is a BCM 4312. It worked well on Lubuntu 13.10.

I enabled the broadcom driver

The icon on the tray did not show so I open up the panel settings and added the network manager (I think this how it is called in english, I use it in a different language). Two icons appeared, 1 for the wired network which worked without problems and a 2nd for wifi. It showed the SSID available, asked me to type the password but nothing happened.

After reading some tweaks I had no luck so I tried "try lubuntu option" to evaluate if it was an upgrade problem. Same thing happened. Enabling the driver, no icon, just the 2 icons when I added them to the panel and the same behaviour remained.

Just for the sake of a test I tried UBUNTU 14.04, it is heavy on the hardware but I want to give it a try. It worked flawlessly.

I am not experienced enough to provide any more help.
