I have the original version of Xubuntu 18.04.5 LTS. But the same problem on any version of Linux. Notebook ACER Aspire 5310 (BCM4311)
Immediately after installation, I remove the drivers (sudo apt purge bcmwl-kernel-source), download (using a VPN (PPTP) connection) and install firmware-b43-installer, otherwise my wifi does not work at all. I connect to it, but the Internet does not work. I connect from the phone to the same wifi and everything is in order. On win7 everything works fine.
