Jiri,

Thanks for the info. I'm using txrate in the sta_info struct, which is an index into the rates 
array. That turned out to be very useful as I discovered that rc80211_simple was setting the initial 
rate to 54 Mbs. I have some doubt if that rate is best under any circumstance, but it certainly is 
not for bcm43xx as the current issues with TX power do not allow transmission at that rate. By 
setting the initial rate to 1 Mbs, I was able to connect for the first time with my BCM4311.

Larry
