I was a bit hasty in my previous message. After looking at the bcm specs again, the clean-room gang has developed the specs for initializing an N-type PHY. As soon as I can, I'll turn that into code and send you a patch for testing. What version of Linux are you running? Would it be possible for you to use git to get a copy of the wireless-2.6 tree?
