Bug Description

Sometimes after I power on laptop or resume it from suspend/hibernate, it doesn't connect to any WiFi network (but can find APs). This problem is both with network manager and wicd. Wicd stops to connect when trying to authorize.

Restarting of NM/Wicd, removing and inserting wl module don't help. Only reboot or suspend and resume help.

I didn't try it with brcmsmac because there is very slow connection speed with this driver.
