I have a HP Pavillion dv6000 with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and a Broadcom wireless card (BCM4312).

My Ethernet connection is fine. But when the wifi is turned on, it will stay connected for a short time and then disconnect and reconnect again. The wireless card is supposed to use the b43 driver, but it still does not hold the connection.

How can I fix my WiFi problem?

Using the ethernet temporarily, please open a terminal and do:

sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer   
sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source

Detach the ethernet, reboot and tell us if the wireless is working as expected.
