Hi,

I try run Ubuntu 16.10 on the Trekstor W2 Tablet but Wi-Fi donts work..
that find WLAN-Network, I give to Passwort and Nothing.. the chip ist
 BCM4356B.. please Help me to install the true Driver on the Linux-Ubuntu..

Not sure what "true Driver" means, but let me see if I can help. First
see if I understand your issue. So you were able to select to WLAN
network and got a pop-up to provide the password. After that you are not
getting a connection. Is this right?

So is this a first attempt to run Ubuntu on it or have you been able to
run older version.

Can you do the following:
- open a terminal.
- run following commands (assuming wlan0):
$ iw dev
$ iw list
$ lspci
$ sudo nmcli nm wifi off
$ sudo rfkill unblock wifi
$ sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
$ sudo iw wlan0 scan
$ dmesg
- send me output of all these commands.

Regards,
