The bcma driver was still a bit rocky upstream in 3.8, if there's a chance you can try a newer kernel that would be great. Here, the driver associates, but simply doesn't appear to reliably pass any traffic.
It will be a couple of weeks before I can try again with the same computer at the same pub where the problem occurred. I haven't seen the problem since with the same computer.
I plan to test next week.
Worked fine with NetworkManager-0.9.8.2-1.fc18.i686 and kernel-PAE-3.10.12-100.fc18.i686.
Ok, thanks for the test, I'll close since it's very likely the kernel update fixed things.
