[anyweb]

to get the above card working in Fedora 8 I did the following (as root)

 

get the latest firmware

Code:

wget http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2

 

uncompress it

Code:

tar xjf broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5.tar.bz2

 

change directory to where the uncompressed files now are

 

Code:

cd broadcom-wl-4.150.10.5
cd driver/

 

add the firmware

 

Code:

b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta_mimo.o

 

associate with an Access Point called wireless_g with a 64 bit wep key qqq99.

Code:

iwconfig wlan1 mode "managed" essid "wireless_g" key "7171713939"
