Actually, when I got wireshark all setup on my netbook and tried again, WPA2
worked with hardware encryption. I'm not sure what the problem was the first time.

I still have no idea why OFDM rates are failing. Any thoughts?

My device lists the following:

Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4321 802.11a/b/g/n
[14e4:4328] (rev 03)
ssb: Core 0 found: ChipCommon (cc 0x800, rev 0x13, vendor 0x4243)
ssb: Core 1 found: IEEE 802.11 (cc 0x812, rev 0x0C, vendor 0x4243)
ssb: Core 2 found: PCI-E (cc 0x820, rev 0x04, vendor 0x4243)
ssb: Core 3 found: PCI (cc 0x804, rev 0x0D, vendor 0x4243)
ssb: Core 4 found: USB 1.1 Host (cc 0x817, rev 0x04, vendor 0x4243)

It has a rev 2 PHY, and a rev 4 0x2055 radio.

I am willing to buy a higher PHY rev device for testing. Any idea what is in a
4324A-BRCM1036? See
