I have the following wi-fi card on my Dell Latitude E6400: siba_bwn0@pci0:12:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x000c1028 chip=0x431514e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Broadcom Corporation' device = 'Broadcom Wireless b/g (BCM4315/BCM22062000)' class = network Grepping for 0x4315 I found that my card is supported by bwn driver: root@olimpico-freebsd 22:08:00 ~ # [0] grep -r 4315 /usr/src/sys/dev/ | grep -i bcm /usr/src/sys/dev/siba/siba_bwn.c: { PCI_VENDOR_BROADCOM, 0x4315, "Broadcom BCM4312 802.11b/g Wireless" }, root@olimpico-freebsd 22:08:01 ~ # [0 0] I have recompiled my kernel (slightly modified 8.1 kernel) with the following options set: device siba_bwn device bwn device wlan device wlan_amrr device firmware Then I installed bwn-firmware-kmod port and now I have the following modules loaded: root@olimpico-freebsd 21:57:25 ~ # [0] kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 9 0xc0400000 7bde40 kernel 2 1 0xc0bbe000 37248 if_bwn.ko 3 1 0xc0bf6000 2b770 bwn_v4_ucode.ko 4 1 0xc0c22000 2cb24 bwn_v4_lp_ucode.ko root@olimpico-freebsd 21:57:27 ~ # [0] These modules were created during bwn-firmware-kmod build using firmware extracted from broadcom-wl-4.178.10.4.tar.bz2 by means of b43-fwcutter tool.
