these might work, maybe
5.100.68.46 (possibly 6.30.145.26) for XP
note: 5GHz support disabled as it seems to be broken - replace BCM43XNGD with BCM43XNMD in .inf file for your device if you wish to test it
or
5.100.68.46 for Vista/Win7
not working? let me know

300 Mbps - 2SS 5GHz 802.11n (40MHz chan.),
300 Mbps - 2SS 2.4GHz 802.11n (40MHz chan.) = AN600 class

Overview

The cable colors for this device are backwards.

Red = GND, Black = 5V, Green = Data +, White = Data -

This device works quite well with brcmfmac after runtime device ID insertion (modprobe brcmfmac; echo "043e 3004" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/brcmfmac/new_id;) - it's a 43236 rev. 3. Throughput is actually quite exceptional..
