Broadcom is not a good chip : (
Your better off buying a dongle...

I would suggest using this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Alfa-AWUS036H-802-11b-Wireless-network/dp/B002WCEWU8/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1344577347&sr=8-7&keywords=alfa+wlan+adapter

I know there is one supporting 802.11n, too. Just google for it. This card is very good for packet injection  :)

I not only search your forum but google too. You see, i havent found a solution yet so i made a post :) Well, i found a driver and firmware but i cant install them. Some error occured in compiling. As i searched i saw many people with that error but there was not any working solution. I hope i find it here.


EDIT: My card IS SUPPORTED so, i just have to find how to install the driver.
