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:
linux-wlan-client-support-list@broadcom.com
