Summary:
The BCM4321 I have, 14e4:4328, should be capable of b/g/n, but when I try to
connect to wireless N, I'm re-prompted for the password. With the same hardware
(router and computer) booted OS X of various versions, a connection is possible.
Router:
Linksys WRT600N v1.1
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (06/08/12) mini-usb-ftp - build 19342
ssid: color2n
mode: N-Only
Channel: 2 - 2.417 Ghz
Security: WPA2 Personal, AES

I have had success with broadcom-wl, however with kernel 3.6 I've started
getting oops. I've erased broadcom-wl and use b43-fwcutter to enable the kernel
built-in support with the proprietary firmware, but I've run into this problem.
