Take a look at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607457 for a thorough explanation of the problem (and that "broadcom must fix their drivers"). So network-manager says it's not a bug on their side. Broadcom's contact form basically autoreplies that they don't care about end-users, and that we should bug our distributors and manufacturers of wireless devices... so if anything, Canonical could bug Dell about this too.
