Currently using 10.3A5 on my laptop and trying to get my Linksys
wireless "G" card to work.Worked great up through 10.1 (skipped 10.2).
The card is a Linksys 54G card with the BCM4306 chipset. I have
installed the firmware using fw-cutter. I get the following with dmesg
when inserting the card:

I also get a repeating error as follows in the messages file:

Jun 24 16:27:08 lt1720 kernel: CCMP: received packet without ExtIV flag from 00:12:17:38:ed:08

At this point nothing further takes place, no network address and no
routing setup. Any suggestions? Is this a known problem? Change to a
different card? Report it to bugzilla? Give up using a computer? :-)
