I'm not sure this is ready for prime time. After I installed it, my b43 was never able to reconnect after any kind of disconnect. The log is uninformative: =========================================== b43-phy0 debug: Wireless interface started b43-phy0 debug: Adding Interface type 2 wlan0: direct probe to 00:14:bf:85:49:fa (try 1) wlan0: direct probe responded wlan0: authenticate with 00:14:bf:85:49:fa (try 1) wlan0: authenticated wlan0: associate with 00:14:bf:85:49:fa (try 1) wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:14:bf:85:49:fa (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=1) wlan0: associated b43-phy0 debug: Using hardware based encryption for keyidx: 0, mac: 00:14:bf:85:49:fa b43-phy0 debug: Disabling hardware based encryption for keyidx: 0, mac: 00:14:bf:85:49:fa wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:14:bf:85:49:fa by local choice (reason=3) =========================================== Reauthentication fails with a pop-up to reenter the WPA2 secret as I'm using NetworkManager. I can only reconnect if b43 (and mac80211) are unloaded and reloaded. I pulled the patch and confirmed that proper behavior is returned.
