Have you tried brcmsmac in-kernel driver? I am not sure about support status for BCM4313, but drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmsmac have a lot of code related t BCM4313. I have BCM4312 and am using successfully in-kernel driver instead of Broadcom's out-of-tree driver. -- Best regards, Andrey Skvortsov Secure e-mail with gnupg: See http://www.gnupg.org/ PGP Key ID: 0x57A3AEAD
