In my case, an "iwlist eth1 scan" triggers a scan, and also always an association. Well, always = three times :-) Also, there might be some race here. When I turned on my laptop and inserted the b43 card freshly, I *DID* get an association with my standard Debian script. After $ pccarcctl eject $ rmmod b43 $ rmmod ssb $ pccardctl insert I needed to trigger a scan. It might also be the case that in this case the card was by change on the frequency of the AP (2.437 MHz).
