I unfortunately can't reproduce the problem with my b43 und my other ca=
rds work fine, too. But I think the problem is that the NetworkManager =
does the following: (And causes with it some low level drivers and wifi=
 cards into trouble.)

[99554.112921] wlan0: Set SSID
[99554.113853] wlan0: Set BSSID
[99554.113861] wlan0: Set SSID
[99554.115084] wlan0: Set BSSID
[99554.115091] wlan0: Set SSID

Have you test it manual with the NetworkManager disabled?

Regards
Alina
