Thanks for the info.

Is there security benefit in running on a desktop with non-Intel (e.g. Broadcom) add-on NICs and nothing connected to the integrated Intel NIC?

Yes. It seems this only works with Intel cards(wifi or ethernet); I don't know the reasons why, though - it might be some firmware support. Also, I find it odd that it can work with the wireless chip - shouldn't the laptop be associated with the AP? If somebody knows, I'd be happy to learn about it.
