Re: Broadcom WLAN Utility & Driver 3.100.56.0 9X/2

Maxxi,

Would you mind if I reprinted these instructions, given proper credit, at our site? You can either PM me or reach me directly at jdepew [at] linksysinfo.org

I personally used these on the MiniPCI card I yanked out of my WRT54Gv1.0 to use in my wireless-less laptop, and they worked great. Unfortunately, not too impressed with the Broadcom client looks like a regression from earlier versions. It seems terribly missing that you cannot click on a AP in the site survey to auto add it to your list or connect to it, and are rather forced through thier awkward wizard.

Thanks for the great info! Keep it coming!

No problem - thanks for the heads up. It turns out I am a "somewhat-active" member of your site (my login there is maxx) and I've posted my instructions in the forum (more than once) but received no replies. Please do reprint them - maybe then someone will notice and make use (like you did) of this information.

PS - You are right to point out that the Broadcom wizard is awkward and that clicking on an AP in the site survey has no effect. Other than that - I think these drivers are the way to go - with some simple INF editing (but not only) the encryption options and settings they allow for are great.
