CentOS - May 2012 - support for Broadcom BCM4313

Hello,

The support for Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless is
native in the kernel since 2.6.37 (module brcm80211, renamed brcmsmac
since 2.6.39).

But is it backported to some kernel available for CentOS ?

Thanks,

Philippe,

You can try ELRepo, I believe that they have the drivers for boderdom, they
also have kernel 3.3.x, please read their note about using kernel 3.3.x. I
have tried it and I did not have any issues with it.

Check http://elrepo.org/tiki/kmod-compat-wireless to see if it supports 
your hardware with the standard kernel.
