Hello there,

we released the source code of the Maranello firmware and all the
necessary kernel patches. It was tested on Broadcom 4318/4306 pci
cards on PC architecture. Find all the necessary files browsing from

Maranello is an enhancement of the 802.11 DCF standard: it implements
a Partial Packet Recovery technique to retransmit only the corrupt
parts of failed packets. This reduces the airtime and contributes to
enhance the throughput. It was written starting from OpenFWWF5.2 by
adding a number of new features.

Kind regards,
-Francesco Gringoli
