When installing there was no networing setup. The first install attempt I assumed that support was in the kernel since it wasn't on the list of non-supported nics in the installation manual. That didn't work. On the second attempt I tried the add modules option and it wasn't listed. I tried google and all I got were similiar horror stories. How do I get this to work?

According to this page: http://www.xs4all.nl/~haanjdj/broadcom.html"[the Broadcom] chip has recently become supported in stock kernels, so if you compile your own kernels, download the latest 2.4 or 2.6 release and give it a try."
and according to a Debian page: http://packages.debian.org/testing/net/bcm4400-source.html"Note that the Linux kernel >= 2.4.22 includes the Broadcom 4400 driver. You may want to consider using the kernel driver instead."
