Hi:

 

You need this driver for that model wifi card...

 

This package contains drivers for the supported Broadcom Wireless LAN Adapters in the supported notebook/laptop models and operating systems.

Hi:

 

Please post the hardware ID for the network controller device, and I will post the link to the wifi driver you need.

You're very welcome.

 

That is the best driver for that adapter.

 

You can try a newer one, but someone told me it didn't work as well as the one I posted.

 

Feel free to give it a try...
