+ Experimental firmware for BCM43xx devices.
+
+ This firmware is not tested as much as the "stable" firmware.

config B43_OPENFIRMWARE
bool "Open FirmWare for WiFi networks"
+ help
+ Opensource firmware for BCM43xx devices.
+
+ Do _not_ select this, unless you know what you are doing.
+ The Opensource firmware is not suitable for embedded devices, yet.
+ It does not support QoS, which is bad for AccessPoints.
+ It does not support hardware crypto acceleration, which is a showstopper
+ for embedded devices with low CPU resources.
+
+ If unsure, select the "stable" firmware.
