  • Driver Installation Help for Broadcom BCM43162 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter

    Friends,

    I have an old AMD E1-6010 APU with AMD Radeon R2 Graphics Lenovo laptop that used to run very well with Windows 7.
    Windows 10/11 are too slow. So, I tried to install Latest XFCE Ubuntu and Linux Mint. Works good.
    But, in both cases, it can not activate my Wifi.


    My Wifi Module is: Broadcom BCM43162 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 02)
    Hardware ID: 14e4:43ae
    Subsystem ID: 17aa:0622
