** Description changed:

  Broadcom BCM4306 (rev 2) wifi using the b43legacy module periodically
  freezes temporarily or even completely fails.  Checking dmesg shows
  "b43legacy-phy0 ERROR: PHY transmission error" often dozens or hundreds
  of times.
  
  These failures don't seem to be caused by any particular activity, and
  aren't even triggered by heavy network usage.  The errors can begin when
  the network is almost idle or when it's under light or heavy usage.
  Once the errors appear, wireless networking either freezes for a few
  seconds to a few minutes, or alternately completely fails.
