Fwd: Broadcom 4318



Hello,

After many days trying to run Broadcom wifi unfructouslessly, I write
you again...

Doing # iwconfig, i obtain:

lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

eth1      no wireless extensions.

wlan0     IEEE 802.11b/g  ESSID:off/any  Nickname:"Broadcom 4318"
         Mode:Managed  Access Point: Invalid
         RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
         Encryption key:off
         Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
         Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
         Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

sit0      no wireless extensions.

And when, I do # iwlist wlan0 scanning, I obtain:

wlan0     Interface doesn't support scanning : No such device

Why ??

Previously that, I made bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware BCMWL564.SYS
and I rebooted the laptop. I tried to do this in two kernels 2.6.18.
The results on booting are the same as my first message in this queue:

bcm43xx driver

bcm43xx: Detected Radio: ID: 8205017f (Manuf: 17f Ver: 2050 Rev: 8)

bcm43xx: Radio turned off

Any ideas ??

Thanks in advance.

David
