You need to grab the firmware out of a windows driver
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/bcm43xx/snapshots/fwcutter  is a good starting point.

The wireless device works perfectly when setting the parameters from the command line with iwconfig but not with the netprofile kernel parameter. Only the essid gets set but no rate and no channel. It worked with linuxant driverloader and ndiswrapper. Any idea what I am doing wrong?
