I've HP Compaq 6715s laptop.
Looking at "pciconf -lv" output, the
wireless (and ethernet) device is:
bge0@pci0:16:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x30c2103c chip=0x171314e4 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation'
device = 'Broadcom NetLink (TM) Fast Ethernet (BCM5906m)'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
I tried to search on the net, including FBSD hardware release notes,
and it seems this device is not supported.
Can anybody comment on/confirm this please?
Any experience using this chip with NDIS?
many thanks
anton
