Hi Arend, I found your email on https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/brcm80211 and would like to ask your help regarding linux support for the Broadcom BCM4330 chipset. The page lists it as supported. More precisely, I am trying to get WiFi to work on a Zotac ZBOX pico 320 which contains an Ampak AP6383 chip. This in turn contains a BCM4330... which leads me to you.
Makes sense ;-)
So far, I was able to rip 4330b2rtecdc.bin (md5 ca91920df0041bd9e31e3aef53ac3375) T77H360.04_WB_nvram_20120731.txt (attached) out of the windows driver and am able to scan for networks using linux 3.19rc6, brcmfmac module and "iwlist wlan0 scanning". However, doing so, I receive many error messages and cannot connect to an AP, let alone start an AP with hostapd. The firmware files in linux-firmware, don't seem to help either. Arend, is it possible to make this chip work? Just STA, or also AP? If so, which firmware and NVRAM files will I need?
Well, I have this chip running on regular x86 laptop using special adapter boards and it also runs on i.MX6 board. The windows firmware and nvram should work. Can you send a kernel log preferably with driver module loaded with 'debug=0xd416'.
The windows driver also contains 11 BCM4330B1_002.001.003.0967.<XXXX>.hcd files. Are those only for bluetooth? Does bluetooth work in linux?
Those .hcd file are indeed for bluetooth. I know next to nothing about bluetooth. Sorry.
Thanks for your time! Ben
