Hi, this is a known issue, the Broadcom wl driver doesn't work well if the MAC is changed. Unfortunately the driver is closed and so only Broadcom can fix this problem. According to this [1] the 'b43' open source driver supports BCM4331. You could try if it works better. [1] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx Beniamino
