Michael,

"The standard wl driver does recognize the card (only b/g), but does not
connect at all."

My understanding is that bcmwl is the wl.ko driver, and you later say
that bcmwl 6.20.x works.  What do you mean by, "the standard wl driver"?

Bernardo,

Now read my post.  I said, "Assuming that the description is
incomplete..." which Michael confirmed in his last message.

I marked the bug Incomplete because it was waiting on Michael to reply
to my questions.  He did, and reset it to New.

It seems that it is another regression.  This whole bcmwl situation
keeps getting more confusing: some cards have regressions from
5.100->6.20 which may be fixed in 6.30, and other cards have regressions
from 6.20->6.30.

That's why I asked Michael to test the other drivers: if brcmsmac (the
in-tree, Free, non-binary driver) can be used with his card, he can dump
the restricted driver and its regressions.

Michael, can you please test brcmsmac with your card?
