While, do you know anyway we can improve this? I have some experience at kernel drivers level, but not with wireless devices, could you tell if I can help on improving this? I tested the same macbook bcm4331 in different WLANs, felt in company wifi network (that's provided with cisco enterprise wlan controllers I think) the wifi connection is not bad, at home with wifi modem provided by at&t, each wifi session cannot work stably over 5 minutes, since some point the long time ping doesn't get response anymore, even worse is NetworkManager doesn't detect the failure doesn't auto reconnect, I have to choose from menu to connect same hotspot again to continue wifi, at some coffee bars each wifi session neither work stably over a couple of minutes, Do you think is it possible bcm4331 has compatibility issue with some wifi routers? I'm going to buy a different wifi router to try, do you have any idea which wifi router or brand better to try?
