Hi, ALL,
I have a Dell Laptop which has a Broadcom wireless device in it.
It is a dual-boot system with Windows XP/Gentoo.

This is the result of lspci:
0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)

This is the system name:
IgorsGentooOnNetwork buildGTK # uname -a
Linux IgorsGentooOnNetwork 2.6.30-gentoo-r6 #5 SMP Sun Oct 4 22:43:50 PDT 2009 
i686 Genuine Intel(R) CPU T1350 @ 1.86GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

When I boot in XP everything works perfect.
When I then boot in Gentoo then, I can't get an IP right away.

Asking about it on Gentoo forum, I got a responce that I should turn off the 
router for 30 seconds and then everything will work.

The router is using the WPA2 encryption and I am using wpa_supplicant.

Is this a problem with just the b43 driver or something on the lower level?
Is this at least known problem?

Thank you.
