Public bug reported: Using proprietary driver "Broadcom STA wireless driver" on a MacBook Pro with a "Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01)".
The wireless driver keeps dropping the network connection. When the network manager applet tries to re-establish the connection, it forgets the WEP key, and a pop-up window appears asking for the key. If I click "Cancel" in the pop-up window, and then click on the network manager applet in the panel, I can select my network and re-connect without being prompted for a key.
