The package linux-firmware in oneiric carries newer firmware for BCM43224[1]. I think it is a good idea to try whether this solves the issue. There is more than one way to do that, but I would probably simply update the whole linux-firmware package with https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-fi

Thanks Mahmoud Such a kernel from that ppa[1] is probably the best choice for now, as it is an ubuntu kernel unlike the ones from the ubuntu mainline archive[2]. I see the driver has been renamed from brcm80211 (in kernel 2.6.38[3]) to brcmsmac (in kernel 2.6.39[4]). [1] https://launchpad.net/~k

Could you both test with the ubuntu kernel from proposed[1] (currently corresponding to 2.6.38.4 stable). I see you are using different drivers. Do you always use the same or have you changed at some point? @Mahmoud If the kernel from proposed does not work could you also test with 2.6.39rc4[2].
