</span>There may be something else going on here, but first try rebooting the<br>
system and then check wireless. Normally, a reboot is not needed under<br>
EL7.<br>
<br>
Once rebooted, please post the results of:<br>
<br>
# uname -a<br>
# rpm -q kmod-wl<br>
# find -L /lib/modules -type f -name wl.ko<br>
<br>
If you still "find" (see <a href="http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=623" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=623</a>):<br>
<br>
/lib/modules/3.10.0-327.4.4.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wl.ko<br>
<br>
then determine what package it is associated with (which may need to be<br>
uninstalled):<br>
<br>
# rpm<br>
-qf /lib/modules/3.10.0-327.4.4.el7.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wl.ko<br>
<br>
<br>
As an example, the correct driver looks like this:<br>
<br>
# rpm -qf /lib/modules/3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64/extra/wl/wl.ko<br>
kmod-wl-6_30_223_271-2.el7.local.x86_64<br>
<br>
...which means package kmod-wl provided it.<br>
<br>
<br>
It is always possible that the Broadcom driver does not support your<br>
hardware (BCM43142, 14e4:4365), but their readme says it should.<br>
