Hi,

I have a bcm4306 card in my desktop machine. I am running a build of 2.6.25-rc9. I have tried fiddling with the network build options and no matter what I select, my network performance is absolutely terrible (between 0 - 24KBps). Connections take around 10-20 seconds to establish. I have a cable modem, and usually see nearly instantaneous connections and between 65-600KBps throughput. I just tried downloading something and am seeing this: 223B/s. Everything is intermittent and and often times out.

I am attempting to collect a log for you to analyze. However, I am running into some snags. 1) The latest firmware, which is called for in the latest kernel code, won't work with my Ubuntu 8.10 kernel (2.6.24-16-386). I got the latest iw git code downloaded, but it won't build for me:

Which revision of the BCM4306 do you have? Which driver (b43, b43legacy, or bcm43xx) are you running?

Based on comment 1) above, I think you are using b43, but why should I have to guess?
