Description of problem:

After the latest kernel update I can't connect to my wireless AP using the 
Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller
(rev 02)

The previous kernel is ok (2.6.25.6-55).
The Centrino Wireless ipw2100 works in both cases.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel - 2.6.25.9-76
NetworkManager - 0.9.4.svn3675.fc9 

How reproducible:


Connect to the AP using Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g
Wireless LAN Controller and kernel 2.6.25.9-76
  

Actual results:

   Connecting failed

Expected results:

   Connecting

I can confirm this on x86 AND x86-64 with same kernel, network manager, and wifi
chipset as reporter.

Will attach my network logs.

Comment 4 Ryan Farmer 2008-07-03 00:45:55 UTC

I'm an idiot, this does not appear to be a b43 driver issue at all, can someone
mark this bug invalid?

It looks like a WPA Supplicant issue because connecting with WEP Passphrase
128-bit works just fine, as does no wifi security at all.

I'll refile this somewhere else, stay tuned.
