Thanks for the reply
I thought all that would be needed would be the Broadcom driver, but that shows 
how little I know about all of this.

Hi John,

No, we don't include any of the many kernel modules and many additional 
packages required for native WiFi support.

This was a conscious decision by the AstLinux developers some time ago.  In 
order to support WiFi completely and support a wide variety of radios, 
encryptions, WiFi modes, etc. a whole Linux distro could be dedicated to doing 
that. :-)  Not to mention that awesomely featured AP's can be purchased for 
about the same price as a miniPCI WiFi Card and antenna set.

I've heard great things about the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi AP's, though I have 
never used them myself.

Possibly others can offer inexpensive, robust, WiFi Access Point solutions, I'm 
sure the mailing list would find that useful.

Can anyone give me some simple guidance on getting the wireless ( Broadcom BCM 
4311 ) to work as a second interface with AstLinux?

I have the latest 1.1.0 ( Asterisk 1.8.20.1 ) installed and alive, but no 
driver for the wireless interface.
The wired Ethernet interface is seen as eth1, and with some minor editing is 
now working.
Is it possible to get the wireless interface working?

TIA
