Hi,
i want to use b43 on older broadcom wireless routers with openwrt, but
there seems to be a problem: The router doesn't send beacons in adhoc
mode (verified with wireshark), which means users can't see the network
in a network scan. So is there a problem in the adhoc implementation
with b43? Could someone please have a look at this? It is preventing us
from using b43 in our mesh for too long now.
Some Infos about hardware/software used:
Router:
Siemens SE505 (very similar to wrt54g), Broadcom 4712 WLAN (core revision 7)
Software:
Openwrt Backfire r28226
kmod-b43 - 2.6.32.27+2011-08-26-1
kmod-b43legacy - 2.6.32.27+2011-08-26-1
kmod-cfg80211 - 2.6.32.27+2011-08-26-1
kmod-mac80211 - 2.6.32.27+2011-08-26-1
Kind regards, Manuel
