Try:

To enable WIFI try the following:

Download the attached file 4345r6nvram.txt

1 - sudo cp 4345r6nvram.txt /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt
2 - reboot

It worked for me in: https://theminixforum.com/index.php?threads/xubuntu-18-04.105/

Are you sure the file is there.. ? Looks like you could not even copy it?

Thx

Hello,
Any idea why this does not work in Linux Mint 20? It is based on Ubuntu.
Installed Linux Mint 21 Xfce and did the below and Wifi works perfect.

1. Open terminal (Usually CTRL+ALT+T)

2. Type "sudo thunar /lib/firmware/brcm" then press "enter" (replace "thunar" with appropriate file manager name)

3. Provide requested password

4. Using the file manager that just opened with sudo permissions rename "brcmfmac43455-sdio.MINIX-NEO Z83-4.txt" to brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt"

5. Close file manager

6. Type "exit" into the terminal window to close it

7. Reboot
