I=E2=80=99ve been = mostly successful getting FreeBSD to run on it (I=E2=80=99ll do a blog = post on that later), but haven=E2=80=99t had any luck with the built-in = wireless: none4@pci0:4:0:0: class=3D0x028000 card=3D0x00ef106b = chip=3D0x433114e4 rev=3D0x02 hdr=3D0x00 vendor =3D 'Broadcom Corporation' device =3D 'BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n' class =3D network Some googling led me to believe that although this chip isn=E2=80=99t = supported by bwn(4), it ought to work with ndis(4). However, I haven=E2=80= =99t had any success. Modules I load based on bcmwl664.sys (I=E2=80=99ve = found and tried several different versions) just complain that there is = =E2=80=9Cno match for=E2=80=9D a bunch of function names and then I get = =E2=80=9CNDIS dummy called=E2=80=A6=E2=80=9D. Modules I load based on bcmwl564.sys seem to identify the card, but then = I get =E2=80=9Cdriver attach returned 12=E2=80=9D and no usable = interface. Does anyone have any ideas or pointers to a specific Windows driver that = works with NDIS? Thanks, John Nielsen
