    b43 always disconnect

    Hi,

    I have a Broadcom BCM4312 wireless card. It is working, but as soon as I start to download something, it disconnects and I cannot connect again.The only way to be connect again is to reboot my netbook. I downloaded from ubuntu software center the b43 driver for LP-PHY card. And then I had -1 channel bug, therefore I installed compat-wireless, I followed this post:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...hlight=bcm4312
    If I use aireplay and try to inject packet it also freezes, then I cannot connect to the internet.

    After a reboot my dmesg | b43 says:
    Code:
    edaneeel@nbook:~$ dmesg | grep b43
    [   15.662990] b43-pci-bridge 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17

    But after my wireless is crashed, it says:
    Code:
    root@nbook:/home/edaneeel# dmesg | grep b43

    my lspci:

    I would be very grateful if somebody could help me, because I have no idea what should I do now.

    Thank you in advance.
