I see exactly the same behavior as described by fejes, in comment #105, on my Jaunty and Intrepid installations - both with the 5.10.91.9 version Broadcom driver.
(BTW, as far as I can tell, it seems to be worse than it was with the previous version.)

Broadcom hasn't responded to bug reports, the b43 driver unfortunately yet doesn't support BCM4312 (PCI-ID 14e4:4315) - and I'm would rather not having to install ndiswrapper once again.

Wish I could switch to another WLAN mini-PCI card, but HP's BIOS "whitelisting" makes that virtually impossible.
Three cheers for closed source and proprietary software...
