Hello!
I wanted to measure speeds in the softmac driver at all rates, but it
looks like I have found something more interesting in process.
The station is a BCM4312 in Dell Latitude with an antenna embedded into
the laptop. The AP PCI card with Atheros 5212 running current MadWifi
in 802.11g mod

BCM4312, old patch: 1.7M/s
no patch: 26k/s
no patch, rate 1: 100k/s
new patch: 1.7
The patch I sent out earlier was wrong; however, it provided a clue as to what
was wrong in the
specs and in the code. As it turned out, the mistake I made earlier only
affected 4 places in the
code and it was easy to test them in turn. According to Murphy's law, the wrong
one was the last one
t
I was a bit too enthusiastic. The patch I sent earlier actually breaks the
4318. It does make 4311
and 4312's work for the wrong reason. If you have that card, you can use it in
the meantime while we
find out just why it helps there.
Sorry for the false alarm, but we are making progress.

There is a typographical error in the spefications that interchange the PHY
version
and revision. Fixing this error makes all BCM43xx varieties work at full CCCK
rates.

John,
This patch should be put into wireless-2.6 and into 'upstream' as so

Gene, I think it would be better for all of us if we don't bother Larry

I have really _GOOD_ news! While reviewing the latest changes in the V4
specs, I found an
interchange of the PHY version and PHY revision fields, relative to the current
V3 specs. Of the
three cards that I have, the 4306 had the same value for the PHY version and
revision. In addition,

Hello,
while playing with the new 2.6.20 (gentoo) kernel, I got some asserts when
putting the machine to sleep (having the bcm43xx blacklisted/unloaded).
bcm43xx: Radio turned off
bcm43xx: DMA-32 0x0200 (RX) max used slots: 3/64
bcm43xx: DMA-32 0x02A0 (TX) max used slots: 0/512
bcm43xx: DMA-32 0
There is a kernel oops on bcm43xx when resuming due to an overly tight timeout
loop.
