Hello all.
I have old laptop IBM Thinkpad T22(NetBSD 6.0.1) with PCMCIA card Cisco Linksys Wireless-G WPC54G -chipset BCM4318 CardBus b/g.

I have problem with driver of this card.
With current:
http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi...NetBSD-current
There is support, but not mine card
Buffalo WLI3-CB-G54L BCM4318 CardBus b/g

With stable:
http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?bwi++NetBSD-6.0
-No support cardbus

From mail list 2008...
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-ke...8/23/msg002499
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-ke...6/28/msg001887


Question is
Is there a difference between Buffalo WLI3-CB-G54L and Cisco Linksys Wireless-G WPC54G? The some chipset....
Maybe I trying to current and put firmware in /libdata/firmware/bwi?

With OpenBSD works, after put firmware but not very good. watchdog timeout...
With FreeBSD no problem after install from ports firmware /net/bwi-kmod

Sorry for my english.

Moved from parent thread.

bgpepi, two points:
  • Your account has been modified such that you can now post HTTP links.
  • The thread in which you replied was 1.5 years old. It is time to start a new thread.
