Did you used bcm43xx-fwcutter for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware?
bcm43xx out of 2.6.21 is working like a charme here:
eth1 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSID:"BLAFSELDIRASEL" Nickname:"Broadcom 4306"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:18
Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm
RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption
key:WPA2 Security mode:open
Link Quality=86/100 Signal level=-43 dBm Noise level=-68 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
Rate=54 Mb/s should be true. I don't know how to verify (benchmark)
this? There are features to measure in the Linville tree, though.
But I can't get the git pull from today to compile:
WARNING: vmlinux: '__div64_32' exported twice. Previous export was
in vmlinux
WARNING: "tcf_destroy_chain" [net/mac80211/mac80211.ko] undefined!
