Everything works perfect in 3,5,4
Upgrading to 3,6,0 stable gives same bug as to you.
Only thing chanced is kernel.
So I believe that's kernel busines

Have a nice dayservicemen

I think your device is not BCM4727 so can you give me 'lspci -v' output.

The broadcom-sta package is provided by the distros and maintained by Broadcom as it is a out-of-tree driver. That means it needs to keep up with the latest kernels, but it is lagging. Basically, this is the major disadvantage of *not* doing driver development upstream.

Issue with broadcom-sta package can be sent to:
