Hi All,
i do not get my Wlan Card with BCM4303 Chip to work.
My System is Debian Testing 32-bit with Kernel 2.6.25-2 from Debian,
therefore i am using the Driver b43legacy.
I tried to connect this Wlan Card with my Wireless Printer.
It is a Ad-Hoc Connection with,
SSID=kleopatra
Channel=10
Authentification=non
Encryption=128-bit Wep
Here it comes the Outout from <lspci>,
02:02.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4303 802.11b
Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 12f3
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17
Memory at e0104000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge
Kernel modules: ssb
I tried some Howtos, but it didn't work.
<ifconfig> show's the following,

<iwconfig> shows this,

eth0 no wireless extensions.

I am not sure whether this Card is active, because <dmesg> show me,
[ 409.752921] b43legacy-phy0: Radio hardware status changed to DISABLED
Another funny Thing is, that i can execute <iwlist wla0 scanning> and
get a Result,

The Adress seems to change sometimes ??? I don't know why.
