It was NetworkManager!! I spent a week pulling out my hair trying everything to get my BCM4312 to work on WPA2. The problem was the #$%^ Gnome NetworkManager. I installed wicd (http://wicd.sourceforge.net/ and the wireless worked the first time I rebooted. Amazing. -- Broadcom BCM4312 rev 02

Larry, Thanks for the update. I've applied the patch at http://linuxwireless.org/download/b43/patch_2.6.24_for_4311_2 to the Hardy kernel and recompiled it. This appears to fix the problem with detection but I still get very slow data transfer rates (2Mbps even next to a 54 Mbps router). Can

I'm also experiencing the same problem with a Compaq 6715b laptop using the same hardware. This appears to be a detection issue with the 2.6.24 kernel which Hardy is running. A patch is available at http://linuxwireless.org/download/b43/patch_2.6.24_for_4311_2 to fix this. Is there a way to get
