Linux wireless site 有很多wireless NIC 工具 ,驅動,軔體

以Broadcom B43 driver跟工具來講

ssb-sprom

A tool for the modification of the Broadcom Sonics Silicon Backplane SPROM (e.g. you can permanently change the MAC address or the PCI IDs of your wire

為何要改 PCI ID ,VEN ID 跟mac address ? 通常會有下面"需求"
1.某些NB(compaq,HP) bios 會做wireless NIC check
2.某些軟體綁 Mac address. :|||:
3.硬改為 網卡vender id and pci id 為apple
ssb-sprom -i ssb_sprom_copy –-subv 0×106b –-subp 0×0087 -o new_ssb_sprom_copy

網拍上BCM43XX 802.11b/g 無線網卡還真不少, 而且價格也非常低廉, 沒想到其中還有這麼多學問!
