Which kernel are you using exactly? > bcm43xx: Chip ID 0x4311, rev 0x1 > bcm43xx: Number of cores: 4 > bcm43xx: Core 0: ID 0x800, rev 0x11, vendor 0x4243, enabled > bcm43xx: Core 1: ID 0x812, rev 0xa, vendor 0x4243, disabled Pretty high revision numbers. I think we need additional code to completely support these.

I'm interrested in seeing a complete dmesg log of this. -- Greetings Michael. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
