Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: bcm43xx-fwcutter
Same problem as leeard reports just different hardware software:
Ubuntu 7.10
~$ sudo lspci -v | grep BCM
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401 100Base-T (rev 01)
02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM
Argh, hit the sent-button too fast:
Well, connection to AP without problems. Though, connection very slow (~30kb/s).
I disabled encryption but problem persists.
In case I forgot some information, please let me know.
Thanks
Gerri

AP. Tried right next to the AP (noise level -93dBM) and also different
APs, same problem.
I switched to ndiswrapper yesterday, e voilá: WLAN at fullspeed under
the same conditions as with fwcutter...

dmesg with ndiswrapper loaded results in nothing suspicious.
I will deliver the dmesg with fwcutter loaded the next days, if needed (I
assume it is, pls let me know
