I looked sources and problems of other Broadcom wireless driver for LP PHY users. They also encounters this issue and are trying to solve this but no luck and no perfect patch until now. Recently AFAIK wireless-test git of linux adopted a patch `gracefully convert DMA to PIO mode' to solve it. Additionally some guys tolds some success story when they disabled ACPI but it looks it's not a perfect solution. IIRC you said PIO worked for association with your AP but no further traffic. However I wonder that this is weird for me because paths of sending management frames and sending data frames are same. Could you please recheck whether PIO mode worked? I'll try to test PIO mode on my environment again. regards, Weongyo Jeong
