Subject: [REGRESSION] BCM4306 cannot associate with any version of b43 driver

I feel I have to escalate this regression to the mailing lists because I've had
no response on the kernel bugzilla from quite some time now.

With the release of the b43 driver, my card can no longer associate with its AP.
I've been testing with 2.6.24 and the wireless-git tree hoping that someone
would fix it, but I've had no requests for testing and no response.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9987

What else do I need to do to get someone to help me? More debugging information?
Please ask me to do something, I'm trying to be an active participant in the
process...

Did you notice the old firmware message in the dmesg output you provided?

Have you tried the version 4 firmware?

My AP is on channel 11.

Comment #3 on the bug points this out, and in comment #4 I updated the firmware.

Please add me to CC as I am not subscribed to the list
