Hello Mathieu, I hadn't noticed I filled out a bug report. What goes on is that the Broadcom STA drivers become corrupt, you have to use sudo jockey-gtk to disable then re-enable them - and then they work fine.
I've been using Precise for a few months now. I just report when I have problems, sorry I didn't post back when I found the cure - I found it somewhere because after I got it to connect it started going very slowly on Internet - and I found that solution of re-enabling drivers with jockey-gtk.
