I tried all the above and nothing works. Two days now I try and nothing.. Please help

Ya last one works for me on 2018.1 but previous versions are support 1st one,Thanks i try lot time to do update and restart again and again

Hello can you please help me, i have installed Kali linux 2018.1 on my USB with 16 GB sd card , so it is working but there is no installed Broadcom driver ... now i have tried everything you write above but always get the same error : modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg).... please help

hello,
i have installed kali and even after updating it always shows this
Package linux-headers-4.14.0-kali3-amd64 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'linux-headers-4.14.0-kali3-amd64' has no installation candidate.
please help me to install headers and wlan available to me.

If you cant apt update try disabling you anti-virus.
I couldnt get it to update because my anti-virus on my real pc was blocking the website it needs to connect to on my VM.

Hey there, I am also facing the same problem with 2018.1. I think installing with USB has something to do with this. Can you share your sources.list file with us here? I know there is one in the kali.org official site but I want to see one yours. I am also getting the no installation candidate error. Help plz.

guys facing the same issues since i m using kali linux. all the above mentioned solution didn't work for me. using by vbox. please help for wifi driver install.

Worked brilliantly on my Kali.
Both my WiFi and Bluetooth are now working.

apt update && apt dist-upgrade
apt install gdebi linux-headers-4.14.0-kali3-amd64
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/b/broadcom-sta/broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-7_all.deb
gdebi broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-7_all.deb
modprobe wl

Is this what works now for the latest Kali version? Trying it out now.

I have found a way to download the packages on a different laptop and install them on the Kali Linux 2019 laptop to fix the WIFI driver issue for Broadcom BCM43142

download dkms package from https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/dkms/download
download the Broadcom BCM43142 drivers from https://debian.pkgs.org/10/debian-nonfree-amd64/broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-10_all.deb.html

Copy the Packages to the Kali Linux laptop and install them

sudo dpkg -i dkms_2.7.1-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i broadcom-sta-dkms_6.30.223.271-10_all.deb

I have wasted a lot of time on this and hope this helps someone solve their problems faster!

2019.4 worked thanks.
2020.1 cant worked.

took me 2 days to figure the problem and find you - your an absolute legend thanks man

It worked on 2020.2 Kali Linux using Broadcom (BCM43142) wifi card.
The commands I used is the upper one. Thank you for this command!

apt-get update
apt-get install linux-image-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') linux-headers-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') broadcom-sta-dkms
modprobe -r b44 b43 b43legacy ssb brcmsmac bcma
modprobe wl

If it get this error when typing "modprob wl"...

modprobe: FATAL: Module wl not found in directory /lib/modules/n.n.n-kalin-amd64

Then, for my laptop, it just need to reboot PC and it successfully installed on the PC.
Problem solved!

For Debian Buster, it also works as well. Thank you for these commands!
