Yatta, online with bcm43xx (dhcp mode)
Well, actually, I don’t know what really happen. But I noticed several clues.
First off all, I got “SoftMAC: Open Authentication completed with 00:17:9a:1f:36:ec”. It was failed last time I booted. And then, iwconfig bit rate shows 11M compared to 1M before. Then link quality shows something like 61/100. Yokatta~
So, what did I do? Well, I followed some clues I got from some thread. First of all, I reloaded bcm43xx module with rmmod bcm43xx and then modprobe bcm43xx. That’s the point where I got good SoftMAC response. Then I set eth1 rate to 11M before trying to attach tho local AP. Then I do the usual iwconfig eth1 essid “PARSLEY JAKAL”. Voila, got link quality 61/100. I’m attached alrite. The process went on with dhcp. It took quite a while. I almost gave up when I saw ” 192.168.1.2 — renewal in 1538 seconds” in my tail -f /var/log/syslog terminal. Yatta~!
Now I can finally enjoy my Jasmine tea. *Slurp~*

Hmm, mine is never work when using bcm43xx, so I use ndiswrapper to load my wireless card.
My broadcom was sort of working fine with ndiswrapper. But it doesn’t work at PARSLEY. Maybe it was just caused by wrong setup that should have been done like what I’ve written above
