My experience over the past few weeks with a BCM4306 in an Acer 1714 has been to get crashes only when the network is stressed, but not every time. Aditionally, only the Linksys driver for the PC-Card version of their implementation has been picking up settings from the AP correctly - but haven't had time to play with this properly or do testing. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Frank Mayhar" <frank@exit.com> > To: <mobile@freebsd.org> > Cc: <current@freebsd.org> > Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2004 12:16 AM > Subject: NDISulator crashness. > > >> I've been using the NDISulator to run my Dell-branded Broadcom wireless >> card (BCM4309) > ... >> Oh, and NDIS is usable with these bugs, it's just annoying to have the >> laptop panic >> every day or two.
