Hello,
I am trying to make a 4318 work on a Debian etch system. The card is reported
as
00:08.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g]
802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
Subsystem: U.S. Robotics Unknown device 011a
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 64, IRQ 10
Memory at eb000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
The card finds its access point

but does not get a dhcp address.
Probably my driver is too old in
grieve:~# uname -a
Linux grieve 2.6.18-3-686 #1 SMP Mon Dec 4 16:41:14 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
grieve:~#
Is there a promising way to get that card working or is it best just to wait
for another few months.
BTW, http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ could be down, I see timeouts.
Thanks,
Rainer
