[oi-dev] Broadcom wireless drivers for OpenIndiana

[Lou Picciano]

Merci, Jean-Pierre,

You realize this one feat addresses any number of questions we've gotten on the lists - with people being limited by the lack of this one driver?

Thanks again, 

Lou Picciano

Subject: [oi-dev] Broadcom wireless drivers for OpenIndiana

I have uploaded to
http://jp-andre.pagesperso-orange.fr/ndis.1.3.0.rc2.tar.gz
a release candidate for an ndis emulator which can emulate the
NDIS5 interface in 64-bit mode for Broadcom wireless drivers
designed for Windows.

This is a source tarball for which completing a Makefile really
usable on OpenIndiana is left as an exercice for the user.
Please read the included bcm4312.htm files for the procedure
to compile and install.

I have tested the emulator with my wireless device (vendor 14E4
device 4315) and the three versions of the Broadcom driver
described below. Jim Klimov has sucessfully tested the latest
version with his own device (vendor 14E4 device 4727).

Only WEP encryption is available so far (WPA is not supported).

Supported devices by driver 4.170.25.12, September 21, 2007
(from Dell R174291.exe) :

Vendor 14E4 device 4311
Vendor 14E4 device 4312
Vendor 14E4 device 4315
Vendor 14E4 device 4318
Vendor 14E4 device 4319
Vendor 14E4 device 4320 rev 03
Vendor 14E4 device 4324 rev 03
Vendor 14E4 device 4328

Supported devices by driver 4.170.77.3, March 22, 2008
(from HP sp39912.exe), same as above, plus :

Vendor 14E4 device 4307
Vendor 14E4 device 432B

Supported devices by driver 5.60.350.6, March 23, 2010
(from HP sp48616.exe), same as above, plus :

Vendor 14E4 device 4353
Vendor 14E4 device 4357
Vendor 14E4 device 4727

Enjoy,

Jean-Pierre
