Looking at the page https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/brcm80211 suggests that I simply need to move to a newer Linux kernel as I am using 3.14.38. NXP recently posted a 4.1.15 install so I will try getting the 43341 module up and running with that. > >> When I insert the 43362 module into the SDIO slot I receive the >> following errors >> >> mmc0: queuing unknown CIS tuple 0x80 (7 bytes) >> mmc0: new high speed SDIO card at address 0001 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware version = wl0: Jun >> 7 2012 >> 18:27:16 version 5.90.225 FWID 01-d8fe14bd >> brcmfmac: brcmf_fil_cmd_data: Failed err=-23 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_fil_cmd_data: Failed err=-23 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_fil_cmd_data: Failed err=-23 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_fil_cmd_data: Failed err=-23 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_add_if: ERROR: netdev:wlan0 already exists >> brcmfmac: brcmf_add_if: ignore IF event >> brcmfmac: brcmf_fil_cmd_data: Failed err=-23 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_construct_reginfo: channel 1: f=2412 bw=0 >> sb=-1998840228 >> brcmfmac: brcmf_construct_reginfo: channel 2: f=2417 bw=0 >> sb=-1998840228 >> >> and suddenly ifconfig shows the interface wlan0.

I was able to scan with iw and join a WPA2 protected network using wpa_supplicant. It would appear that I have the 43362 up and running with the brcmfmac driver. I will try the other Linux install for the 43341. Thank you all for all your help. It is much appreciated. :-) -Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
