The network still does go down after installed the b43 drivers.  Here is
the log after the install.  It does seem to be better now than  before.
This log entry looks like the kernel attempting to contact the wireless
but then fails and resets itself.  It did come back after about a minute
and should work for a while.  Is there a way to increase the time out
for the probe from AP? What is AP?
