Thanks for the suggestion Pete, but unless I'm doing something stupid,
(which is not uncommon), no joy. I've tried with and without WEP
encryption, different rates, Managed and Auto, DHCP and fixed IP, but
from the kernel logs it seems to be a problem with associating and
authenticating. I've been combing the threads at
http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/bcm43xx-dev/ looking for a clue.
Perhaps a future kernel with a future softmac or dscape stack will fix
this.
