A number of end-users reported issues with BCM43602 on the 2015

firmware and while at it refresh the AP firmware as well. The
latter has been tested using Netgear R8000. The STA firmware has
been tested on MacBook Pro.


Are there version numbers we could update in WHENCE to make this
easier to track?

Hi Kyle,

For brcmfmac firmware we do not have version numbers in the WHENCE file. The firmware file itself contains the version number which can be shown using hexdump. I can make a note of that fact in the WHENCE file if needed.
