If "b43.ko" has been loaded? With lsmod: # lsmod Module Size Used by mousedev 5800 0 ssb 19204 0 usbtouchscreen 3332 0 > In dmesg, you should see something > like: > > ssb: Core 0 found: ChipCommon (cc 0x800, rev 0x11, vendor 0x4243) > ssb: Core 1 found: IEEE 802.11 (cc 0x812, rev 0x0A, vendor 0x4243) > ssb: Core 2 found: USB 1.1 Host (cc 0x817, rev 0x03, vendor 0x4243) > ssb: Core 3 found: PCI-E (cc 0x820, rev 0x01, vendor 0x4243) > ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found on PCI device 0000:01:00.0 > b43-phy0: Broadcom 4311 WLAN found My output here is: ssb: Core 0 found: ChipCommon (cc 0x800, rev 0x04, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 1 found: IEEE 802.11 (cc 0x812, rev 0x05, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 2 found: PCMCIA (cc 0x80D, rev 0x02, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 3 found: V90 (cc 0x807, rev 0x02, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Core 4 found: PCI (cc 0x804, rev 0x09, vendor 0x4243) ssb: Sonics Silicon Backplane found on PCI device 0000:03:00.0 And, because b43.ko doesn't get auto-loaded, I don't have a "b43-phy0"-line. I'm not sure if the following is relevant, but here is the output of "lspci -n": 03:00.0 0280: 14e4:4320 (rev 03) And if I manually "modprobe b43", I get this: b43-phy0: Broadcom 4306 WLAN found b43-phy0 debug: Found PHY: Analog 2, Type 2, Revision 2 b43-phy0 debug: Found Radio: Manuf 0x17F, Version 0x2050, Revision 2 b43-phy0 debug: Radio turned off wmaster0: Selected rate control algorithm 'simple' After "iwconfig eth1 essid XXXXX", "iwconfig eth1 key s:XXXXX" and "ifconfig eth1 up", I get this: b43-phy0 debug: Adding Interface type 2 b43-phy0 debug: Loading firmware version 351.126 (2006-07-29 05:54:02) b43-phy0 debug: Radio turned on b43-phy0 debug: Radio enabled by hardware b43-phy0 ERROR: bbatt(11) >= size of LO array b43-phy0 debug: Chip initialized b43-phy0 debug: 30-bit DMA initialized b43-phy0 debug: Wireless interface started HW CONFIG: channel=1 freq=2412 phymode=3 b43-phy0 debug: Using hardware based encryption for keyidx: 0, mac: ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff But I'm pretty sure this is unrelated to auto-loading b43 :-) > I assume that you meant b43 when you typed b32 Yes.

I don't care that much for bitrate, I'd rather have a very long range, even when it's only 1 MB/s.
