The Android installation that my device came with ships a newer
firmware version: "BCM4335/1 wl0: May 18 2014 16:56:54 version
6.34.171.58.2". This is also available in CoreELEC's repository: [2].
I went ahead and used this newer on my Arch Linux ARM installation and
it seems to have fixed my problem
I am now at 12 days of uptime and wifi is still working with that firmware
gentle ping on this
I can send a patch against linux-firmware if you want but I'm not sure
about the license or any internals of that firmware
Hi Martin,
Sorry I did not chime in earlier. I have not looked at the CoreELEC
repository for license files. Without such info I am inclined to say you
are not licensed to redistribute the firmware. The BCM4335 is
end-of-life for us although maybe Cypress is still selling the device
and may want to provide a firmware update.
Regards,
Arend
