Zajec's response guides you to the part of the wiki that states:

It does not support new chipsets (BCM5356, BCM5357, BCM5358, BCM47186, BCM4331)

Additionally you can check the b43 soc support page and you'll see that it's not supported in the kernel.

Okay. What then are the options? What to do? OpenWRT is not supported comes out?

You can flash back to stock in Luci > System > Backup/Flash firmware. If you don't want to stay on stock the e1200 v2 appears to be supported by dd-wrt.

as i understand we should use bcm947xx for those device
