I can confirm the regression: my card is 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) and I'm running the kernel 2.6.22-11-386 on Gutsy
I can confirm poor performance, I can reach only ~40KB traffic from a cople meters away from the AP. I cannot confirm the crash in restricted-manager, Infact i can download succesfully the firmware from the internet with restricted-manager (source http://xeve.de/down/wl_apsta.o) and the lights of my pcmcia card do light on, but restricted manager still ask for a firmware after a reboot, and I have to start over the process of enable firmware --> download the firmware from internet. I have filled a bug (Bug #139086) about this. Also I confirm a bug in restricted manager that prevents me from load a firmware using a local file either typing the path-to-file manually in the input box and trying to push the browse button. when launching restricted manager from a terminal and downloading the file from internet I receive this output from the terminal: filename : wl_apsta.o version : 3.130.20.0 MD5 :
