Hi,
I've just successfully downloaded compat-wireless, compiled and loaded the
latest B43 module. I can do iwlist scan and get an IP from my router. I can
ping my router. However, the connection only lasts for a few seconds. Then, I
need to re-associate again.
dmesg regularlly shows this message:
[882193.464000] b43-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error
[882207.008000] b43-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error
[882207.008000] b43-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error
and, a few times, I get disassociated with the router:
[881898.392000] b43-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error
[881923.416000] wlan0: deauthenticate(reason=3)
[881924.508000] rx BA session requested to stop on inactive tid 0
cheers.

Hi,
Following my previous email, I changed some settings on my OpenWRT router and
it seems to work flawlessly now. The error messages are all gone!!
I had to disable the "G-mode protection" in my router. Hope this information
helps.
Thanks for the great job in bringing broadcom support to Linux!
cheers.
