Yes, I used the svn from bcm43xx (you could also use a snapshot) and a snapshot of softmac. You just need to disable ieee80211 in the (vanilla) kernel, since the modified ieee80211 is included in the softmac snapshot. A "make install" will install the needed kernel modules in /lib/modules for both softmac and bcm43xx. Then you do something like the following: --------------- #!/bin/bash ifconfig eth1 down ifconfig eth1 up iwconfig eth1 rate 11M iwconfig eth1 essid fifi iwconfig eth1 key 1230123012301230123012302 dhclient eth1 --------------- Adapt everything to your configuration of course, maybe a higher rate than 11M is possible according to circumstances, but it works very well in my case. A higher rate gives me trouble with dhcp. But for the rest it is very stable.
