Since the device is working at low speeds for you, you might experiment
with limiting the maximum rate so as to avoid rate oscillations:

	iwconfig wlan0 rate 5.5M auto

You could then experiment to see if you can bump the rate higher.

Thanks, John,
I really can get a rate of 36 or even 54 Mb/s now! It's on F8 that, for the first time now, I can get the b43 driver running - on F<8 I always had to switch to bcm43xx. The only problem left with networking is the recent wpa_supplicant bug which seems to have struck me too (not to mention NetworkManager ...). Even with the latest update (0.5.7-16) wpa_supplicant won't start at boot time. So, to connect to my wireless, I have to give the following sequence of commands (as root):
	ifconfig wlan0 up
	service wpa_supplicant start
	dhclient
