Bug Description

Using OpenSSH_4.7p1 Debian-8ubuntu1.2, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007

This bug occurs only when I am connected via wireless. When I attempt to connect to an SSH server, I type my password and then it hangs. Closing the program with CTRL+C or CTRL+Z doesn't work. I know the server side is OK, because I can connect to it with other systems. This issue is not new and it is due apparently to the "wl" driver. In fact I connect via Ethernet everything works. This bug can be reproduced with several SSH servers.

There are plenty of online reports and hacking solutions (that require disabling wl and using ndis-wrapper):

I think this is a very serious bug that prevents the use of the dell-mini to connect via ssh.
