Andy, if you're experiencing a change in behaviour it probably means you have successfully switched wireless drivers from brcm80211 to wl (bcmwl) (i.e. this bug fix works).
I have read in other bugs people say their hardware switches don't work with bcmwl. If yours did work before then I suggest simply uninstalling the bcmwl-kernel-source package. That will take you back to the brcm80211 driver which it sounds worked better for you. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/747002 Title: bcmwl fails to blacklist brcm80211 so is never used To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcmwl/+bug/747002/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
