Hi linux wireless,
Is there hardware support for injection in BCM4313 wireless card(PCI
id:14e4:4727)?
I only that driver has partial support without injection. I dunno if
there is hardware support.
Can you please let me know the details?
I am also planning to buy a wireless card with full injection support
if BCM4313 is not supported.
Can you please suggest me some good cheap wireless card with full
injection support?

You just get a normal TX, but without a sta pointer.

As for as my hardware is concerned i could not figure out whether
there is support for injection. I know that the brcmsmac supports only
the monitoring mode. Since there is only partial support from
brcmsmac, i would like to patch to support injection.
Since iam a beginner, i don't know how to start the driver developement.
Can you please provide some documentation so that it would be helpful
in my development?

I've got a laptop with a bcm4313 and injection works fairly well since
3.3 iirc, could you doublecheck that it doesn't work? e.g. run
aireplay-ng in test mode maybe.
(As far as I saw patches come in, injection worked off the bat through
mac80211 since they added monitoring mode)
