Hi,

After upgrading to the 2.6.24 kernel and switching from the bcm driver to the new b43 driver, I can no longer attach to my AP. If I downgrade to 2.6.23 it starts working again, so I'm confident that the hardware setup is all fine. Using the new driver, "iwscan" does not locate any APs and running wpa_supplicant hangs scanning for an AP to attach to. The driver seems to find the card ok and I followed the instructions here: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 to get the correct firmware. I also compiled both b43 and b43-legacy (since I have a 4306 rev 3 and wasn't sure which one worked) but the driver attaches b43 to my card.

Does anyone know what I can do to track down the problem?
