I discovered some other chipset on this USB dongle when hacking it with brcmfmac. If I remember correctly it was 4322. Sounds a little weird, as we already know softmac BCM4322 with N-PHY, I don't know if there is any relation between softmac 4322 and fullmac 4322. -- Rafał -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
