Try: DRIVERS=wext This actually worked better for me than DRIVERS=ndiswrapper when I use ndiswrapper. I think it tells wpa_supplicant that the kernel driver supports the generic wireless extensions. As an example, I can get WPA-PSK authentication to work with DRIVERS=wext but not with ndiswrapper even though I'm running ndiswrapper. I also did some googling and it looks like quite a bit of bcm43xx work has gone into kernels after 2.6.18. No idea if these changes have been back ported by upstream to the current 2.6.18 kernel. I have some friends visiting now but I'm planning on giving bcm43xx a whirl again with the 2.6.21 kernel. Cheers, Dave -- Politics, n.
