I want to thank you guys once again for your advice, last week on my BCM4306 problem. I've tried 20dBm, 15, 12, and 10dBm, with varying degrees of success. Which, is just a fancy way of saying, no real success.
I'm going back to the unpatched, 2-23 sources of last week to get to a known state and will try the open source firmware which is reported to work with b43. If it doesn't, and frankly, I'm not hopefull, is there any way of going back to bcm43xx. It'd be a shame to abandon a card which worked perfectly well, before, even if it's not as open as we'd like. A lot of us are stuck with this device in otherwise perfectly good laptops. One more question and i hope you don't mind, it's off topic but it's related to my quest. I hadven't done any C programming in 10 years but when I used to do a lot of it, if I patche a source file and ran 'make', it figured out what needed to be done and just recompiled and liknked the changed bits. Over the last week, every time I changed phy_g.c, make calmly repied, 'nothing to be done.' What am I forgetting?
