I've received my WNA3100, 0846:9020 (maybe BCM43231, can't confirm).

 It works with ndiswrapper and bcmwlhigh6, I can scan and even connect
 to my WPA2 network.

 Unfortunately I've no idea what hardware is this. I've dumped
 ndiswrapper USB operations but they don't tell me a single thing.
 Initialization is represented by only ~1000 lines in dumps and I've
 connected in next ~1500 lines of USB dump. I've been using "usbmon" to
 dump traffic.

 The hardware seems to have:
 1) Configuration
 2) 3 endpoints (2*bulk, 1*interrupt)

 The attached dump doesn't contain:
 1) Anything EPROM specific (like 0x4BF... or 0x0000000F)
 2) Anything SPROM specific (like 0x5372 signature)
 3) Anything Broadcom specific (like 0x14e4)
 4) Anything BCMA specific (like 0x408 aka BCMA_IOCTL)

 I've no idea what to look for on this card. I started to believe it's
 some fullmac, but didn't find anything to prove this.


 Larry: is there any chance you will give some tips on this hardware? I
 know RE of x86 driver can be really ugly, but maybe you'll find
 something somewhere anyway? At least some minimal tip.


 The only thing I've recognized in USB dump is my MAC address
