Yeah... the b43 driver somewhat worked with raring but has always been very unstable for me. Additionally it does not support the 5GHz band on the BCM4331 chip which would eliminate it as an alternative to the bcmwl, even if it would become more stable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bcmwl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1189611 Title: bcmwl-kernel-source 6.30.223.30+bdcom-0ubuntu1 fails to see 5GHz networks and is unstable on 2.5GHz Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hardware: Broadcom Corporation BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 02) This chip is working perfectly fine on 2.5GHz and 5GHz using version 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu6 of the driver.

I can concur with Michael's assessment. I've a Macbook Pro 8,1, with broadcom 4331 wifi chip. With raring, wifi was quite stable (I was using b43 then). Doing a clean-install of saucy, my wifi was highly unstable (using wl). I had same instability using b43. I followed Michael's advice and installed a 3.8 kernel with bcmwl- kernel-source version 6.20, and I have reliable wifi once more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to bcmwl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1189611 Title: bcmwl-kernel-source 6.30.223.30+bdcom-0ubuntu1 fails to see 5GHz networks and is unstable on 2.5GHz Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hardware: Broadcom Corporation BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 02) This chip is working perfectly fine on 2.5GHz and 5GHz using version 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu6 of the driver.
