Hi Julian I'm running a BCM43228 chip -- not so different from yours -- in an HP ProBook 6570b. NDIS is the only option and it does mostly work, if you can tolerate unexpected restarts. I can usually get a few hours work in before it goes wrong. Disappointing but there apparently just isn't anybody available to work on support for these chips at the moment so we have to live with it!
