Some time ago I found some source code for the wireless device in my
Broadcom brcm63xx router in the source code package for it.
It contains ~3 MB of source code for the wireless device (Broadcom
BCM43XX 802.11abg), but there are no make files and the build process
takes an pre-compiled version. It looks like someone forgot to delete
some files.

There is a text like this in all files:
This is UNPUBLISHED PROPRIETARY SOURCE CODE of Broadcom Corporation;

The package can be downloaded at:
http://broadband.eip.siemens.ch/public/GPL_source/GPL_source_CL_SL_SLI_series_consumer_release.tar

The code is in the directory broadcom/net/wl/impl1

If you know Broadcom had published it, forget about this e-mail.
