I remember seeing some mail about the Broadcom guys working on a Linux driver for a USB fullmac device. Is this the one? (I added Arend to the Cc.) LarryAs you know we currently have two linux drivers. brcmfmac is a fullmac architecture for cfg80211, brcmsmac is a softmac architecture for mac80211. The brcmfmac driver will get usb support soon (when I finish my testing over here) but it supports another device (ie. bcm43236). The bcm43231 has another architecture and can not be supported by either of the drivers.
Can you check what chipset is 0846:9020? I didn't see any prove it's BCM43231 so far. Can you confirm/deny this? Firmware upload of Windows driver for 0846:9020 looks similar to brcmfmac. -- Rafał
