I would like a few more details about your configuration so that I might be able to reproduce the problem. When you say "the latest git tree", do you mean Linus's mainstream tree? Is your wireless device being controlled by NetworkManager, or by ifconfig up/down? Which distro do you use? Which BCM43xx device do you have?
