Hi,

Wondering if anyone can provide information on plans to support the
Broadcom BCM43162 adapter in the b43 kernel drivers?

Have tried other options with ndiswrapper etc. to no success. Wondering
whether to keep trying to get a solution/wait for driver vs just
replace the card...

(Happy to provide testing etc. if it helps out.)

Thanks for any info,

Rod
