Hello everyone,
I have a BCM4308 rev 3 based PCI wireless card and eventually want to
make it an access point.
Right now, I use a stock 2.6.25 kernel, with the stock b43 driver and
appropriate firmware. I use an up to date Gentoo, x86-32 (even though
my CPU could do 64).
I've started reading documentation on wireless.kernel.org, and don't
understand much of it (nl80211, mac80211, cfg80211... Many things to
learn about).
Right now I'm stuck at the "setting the card to master mode": iwconfig
wlan0 mode master returns "Invalid argument". The card works fine with
other modes though.
I'm a rookie. However, I'm willing to answer questions/read further
documentation/downloading, compiling kernel, modules, user utilities,
and testing the lot. So, feel free to mail me!
Have fun,
