Hi Camaleón,
thanks for the additional information you provided.
One difference, though, is that now (with kernel 3.0.0) when I shutdown
the system it hangs at NetworkManager if wifi LED is on. As soon as I
turn off the wifi led, the system can continue the shutdown.

Interesting observations. Ok, lets keep this in the back of our minds
but first focus on the bad scan results.

nor connecting manually to a hidden network is possible (unless I sit
next to the AP).
Hmmm, so it seems that rfkill switch functionality is not causing the
bad scan result.
Can you try to disable Bluetooth (e.g. by temporary blacklisting the
bluetooth modules) ? Bluetooth operates in the same frequency band as WiFi.
Would you happen to know if with kernel 2.6.39, the brcmsmac driver was
active as well (and not a different driver) ?

Lets shoot for that as well :-)
Thanks, Roland.
