Hi, how far are you to support this chip BCM4321?
Is this a new chip BCM4727 not listed on your page (http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43)?
dmesg | grep eth1

I've asked this question earlier; all code for BCM4321 seems to be in
place (though not for BCM4322), but it is still disabled as BROKEN.

This is BCM4313, supported in brcm80211. wl_hybrid incorrectly uses
the PCI device ID (0x4727) rather than the SSB chip ID (decimal(?)
4313) to identify the card.

We are at point where last patches are needed and testing should be
started. Testing, comparing with wl, etc.
Unfortunately I lost access to machine with MiniPCI-E and can not do
much for now.

where can I get the firmware for brcm80211?
Is there a FOSSI firmware or is the one provided by Broadcom the only one?
I installed from the compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2 but ask for the firmware...

AFAIK the only firmware is the one released by Broadcom, and you can
find it in linux-firmware.git.
However, brcm80211 doesn't support BCM4321 - it only supports the new,
SSB-less N-PHYs (BCM43224 and BCM43225), not the older, SSB-based ones
(BCM4321 and BCM4322). B43 pretty much has everything in place to
support it (with the other Broadcom firmware), but it is untested and
AFAIK disabled. Patching b43 to enable this code might get it to work,
but I don't know, as I have no N-PHY.
