I had wifi working on my laptop for a few hours and celebrated this accomplishment by doing an update world over the connection, after rebooting scan returns no results. I've tried iwlist and scanning from wpa_supplicant. Neither finds any of the 12 networks around me.

I'm using the broadcom-sta driver to support the bcm43228 card in my dell latitude e6330.

I tried re-emerging the broadcom-sta driver but that resolved nothing. I don't see anything that hs changed so I'm at a loss as to where to start working on this.

Here is my kernel config (although I wouldn't think anything kernel related has changed).

Here is the iwconfig for the wireless adapter

Code:
wlp2s0    IEEE 802.11abg  ESSID:off/any 
          Mode:Managed  Access Point: Not-Associated   Tx-Power=200 dBm   
          Retry  long limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
 


The broadcom module is still there but doesn't appear to be used (which seems like a problem).

Code:
Module                  Size  Used by
wl                   4113326  0


It appears to be loading properly since these are the only wl related messages in dmesg:
Code:
[    7.977974] wl: module license 'Mixed/Proprietary' taints kernel.
[    8.010517] INFO @wl_cfg80211_attach : Registered CFG80211 phy
[    8.010719] wlan0: Broadcom BCM4359 802.11 Hybrid Wireless Controller 6.30.223.141 (r415941)
[    8.053853] systemd-udevd[2954]: renamed network interface wlan0 to wlp2s0
[  250.384784] iwlist (3833) used greatest stack depth: 2624 bytes left



Neither /etc/conf.d/net
http://pastebin.com/7rfvsMSH

nor /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf appear to have changed
http://pastebin.com/tm8Wc0AE

What should I be looking at next?
