By the way, I have been using a few 43228 in monitor mode with b43 and they were hanging pretty randomly (I was using 3.16.0-wl that time, apparently they were stopping receiving but they were still able to transmit). Although they work much better than 43224, especially with 48Mb/s and 54Mb/s and with higher MCS (especially with two streams), the 43224 seemed to be more stable.

I'll have to hack my bios before I send this card over. Yes, I tried blacklisting the proprietary wl on kernel 3.17 and rebooting. Messed a bit around, I could scan for networks, but wasn't able to connect to any of them. I sent a mail about that earlier to the b43 list; got no response (possibly someone forgot to use reply all). R -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
