Yes it should be. > Should I try your module instead of bwi(4)? No. ssb driver is a kind of bus driver that it's not a wireless driver so can not use.

It's almost done that it works to associate with AP and pings for RX/TX but not public yet. When it's available let you know for testing. :-) > > And just in case you find it usefull, in ssb_pci.c, { > PCI_VENDOR_BROADCOM, 0x4315, "Unknown" }, is actually a 'Broadcom > Wireless b/g (BCM4315/BCM22062000)'.
