    Unhappy Broadcom Corporation BCM43227 802.11b/g/n wireless card trubleshooting.

    I recently tried to move my kali linux install from dell latitude d520 where everything worked perfectly, to move to my acer aspire 5253G where i previously had ubuntu 13.10 installation.

    But for the first time, I made mistake, and installed 32 bit kali on acer. Than I thought, maybe it could be possible reason, that 32 bit iso kernel does not support this wireless card, as computer is 64 bit computer, and have maybe some cards, that are normaly compiled with 64 bit kali kernel.

    My thoughts fall down after reinstallation of kali, but this time with 64 bit version iso. I still have same problem. WIRELESS CARDS NOT RECOGNIZED, or not loaded properly.

    My wireless card is, according to lspci is:

    As I already have tried to many other things, to follow different blog posts all over the internet, this problem still stays unbeaten.

    There for example:

    modprobe ... (tried almost everything with this)
    rfkill unblock wifi (or something like that)

    as well as million other things...

    Is here any idea for getting thinks work properly?
