I was having the same problem about a month ago.
I am setup with ndiswrapper it just seems to work way better than when I use bcm43xx.
This is a great site http://www.wirelessdefence.org/Contents ... mmands.htm
I have turned off my gnome network manager. I just use the good old terminal up and down to find the last command i need, so i do not have to type the commands every time.
This is what I type to access my network: sudo iwconfig eth1 mode managed essid baptistnet
