[Astrid <beastlife42@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
I could have my wireless connection on Acer Aspire V3-471G with the card BCM43228 all in good order after upgrading from Trusty Thar to kernel Wily 4.0.4 by installing the package bcmwl - 6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu3.

To achieve this, I downloaded http://launchpadlibrarian.net/206246268
/bcmwl-kernel-source_6.30.223.248%2Bbdcom-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb and used
the command dpkg in the Terminal to build the module on my machine.

Thank you !
