I just set up Deepin on an old HP laptop and tried to connect it to Wi-Fi, but it doesn’t detect any nearby networks. It says no Wi-Fi is available even though it works on other devices. Anyone have experience with this issue? The system is up to date, version 15.11.

Download and set up the driver for your Wi-Fi adapter from the official Broadcom website.

The installation is failing due to a conflict with existing files. Checking the database shows 183,997 items installed. Preparing to unpack the firmware package. An error occurred during application: trying to overwrite a file in the firmware directory. The issue appears related to package conflicts or permissions.

It seems you're confirming the driver is installed. I'll check if the laptop's Wi-Fi supports other operating systems.

Absolutely, it functioned well with Windows 7 a couple of years back. After stopping its use, I switched to Linux for better performance and stability. Now I’m exploring other distributions that might suit my needs, either similar or compatible. If the issue persists, testing alternatives could help identify the root cause.
