AFAIK, the phy driver is for wired devices. Have you installed the
firmware? Please look at the output of the command

dmesg | egrep "ssb|b43|wlan0"

The other kernel modules that are needed are mac80211 and friends;
however, the Kconfig rules should ensure that mac80211 is built before
you can actually build b43.

BTW, your mailer is misconfigured. the "To:" header field is wrong,
which prevents an automatic "reply to".
