```
sudo apt-get install dkms bcmwl-kernel-source

You should have a working WiFi, and recognized bluetooth.

## You cannot pair bluetooth

You need to add the bluetooth firmware.

```
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xseignard/dw1560/master/BCM20702A1-0a5c-216f.hcd
sudo cp BCM20702A1-0a5c-216f.hcd /lib/firmware/brcm
```

Now you should be good!
