To test it, I loaded up a 720p video on Youtube - that's where all my connection problems have reared their heads, while streaming video.

It still crashed about fifteen seconds in.

Hrm. I'm gonna poke at some stuff

Damn, sorry to hear that. did you try the old turn off and on again?

try looking in the Ubuntu forums. you might find an answer in there, they can be pretty useful.

Broadcom being Broadcom.

I'm going to go over there now (I've never been before).

And yeah, I tried the ol' reboot. It's almost like it's not using the Windows driver. Maybe I just need to switch something off...

Anyway, thank you for your help. I wouldn't have gotten this far without you.

Shit, i just remembered something about the broadcom...

You said it was working before, just really slow - that means the basic driver that comes with Ubuntu is working, and it will still be running now. you'll need to turn off the standard generic driver (blacklist it) but i can't remember how.

then you should be able to get the correct driver operating. I'm pretty sure there will be an answer for you in the forums.
