I've got a laptop with a bcm4313 and injection works fairly well since 3.3 iirc, could you doublecheck that it doesn't work? e.g. run aireplay-ng in test mode maybe. (As far as I saw patches come in, injection worked off the bat through mac80211 since they added monitoring mode) -- Dominique Martinet | Asmadeus
