I have a inspiron 1724 with a Dell Wireless 1520 card. It looked to me that the 
bmw driver in 8.1 might support this card. pciconf shows:

none3 at pci0:3:0:0:  class=0x028000 card=0x000e1028 chip=0x435314e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
     vendor     = 'Broadcom Corporation'
     class      = network

After trying a number of things, I decided to build a kernel with the required 
devices. The device is still not recognized. Does this driver not support the 
1520? If the driver is still evolving, I am happy to supply a test system.
