into wireless-testing, the only thing that isn't in yet is 802.11a
support....

the LM87 firmware is this one:
http://daemonizer.de/prism54/prism54-fw/fw-usb/2.13.1.0.arm.1

This link can be found on the driver's site too:

Thanks. That one fixed the ping problem. I had the latest
wireless-testing, and have added the patches you posted earlier today.

Well, since you already do some testing here.  Want more? ;-)

I will be off for about 4-5 weeks and it would be very nice if someone with lots of broadcom
hardware can test if the p54 works ADHOC & AP mode with them.

i've already (successfully) tested Intel's 2915 & 4965, several atheros chipsets and another prism54
on different operating systems.

But there could be problems with some broadcom chips.

I'll see what I can do.

After loading the new firmware, p54usb crapped out after the following message was logged:

phy9: not handling 0x02 type control frame

After this, I had to unload and reload the driver. I have not yet had time to check on it.
