I've been using ndiswrapper on my Compaq r4000, but few days ago I |
| 20 |
installed ieee80211softmac and bcm43xx as kernel module drivers for |
| 21 |
Broadcom BCM4306 and now I can use my notebook as access point or use |
| 22 |
kismet :). |

Try http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ or http://linux-bcom4301.sourceforge.net/ |
