Based on many years of experience troubleshooting Broadcom WiFi problems on 
Debian Linux, I'd suggest investigating the driver as that's where all the 
variety of problems I experienced were. 

* Pay special attention to the revision. From your lspci output, "BCM43224 
802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4353] (rev 01)". There will likely be specific drivers for 
specific chip hardware revisions. 

An example of how not having the correct specific driver for the specific WiFi 
chip would show up is that an 802.11 a/b/g/n doesn't have the firmware support 
for 802.11 g and/or n.

*802.11b would seem like 2 orders of magnitude slower than 802.11n.

HTH!
