On her laptop she would get poor transfers of about 2.5MB/s but this was computer to computer on local wireless network. She would also get where other computers could see her and because of that network printers would drop off. Adding the following: options b43 nohwcrypt=1 to /etc/modprobe.d/b43.conf seemed to help. Others report adding "qos=1" to that helps as well. Just google around for broadcomm and nohwcrypt.
