Broadcom 43xx Wireless Network Adapter



I've been futiley attempting to get the onboard wireless working on my
laptop, and recently went through some instructions in a post over at
linuxquestions.org. Despite going through the instructions step by
step, wireless still does not work, with either the onboard wireless
controller or the PCMCIA one I have for experimenting with. The on board
(eth1) shows in lspci as:

05:02.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One
54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)

The other one (eth2) is:

06:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g
Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)


ndiswrapper -l shows:

Installed ndis drivers:
wmp54gs driver present, hardware present


iwconfig:

lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.


I'm running the AMD-64 flavor of Debian, Kernel 2.6.22-3-amd64

Any ideas on where I may have erred here? Like I said, I'm certain I
followed the above instructions step by step.
