I have an Acer Aspire TimelineX 4820T, which has the BCM43225 chip (it uses the same driver as the BCM4311). I had tried downgrading to the older Broadcom 5.60 driver without success. However Giulio's workaround also works for me. I need to remove the acer-wmi module or wi-fi just doesn't work, however it will immediately connect once this module is disabled. So I'm not sure if this is a separate issue unique to Acer laptops or what?
