Bug Description

The laptop won't connect as per syslog:
NetworkManager[747]: <info> (wlan1): device state change: config -> failed (reason 'no-secrets') [50 120 7]

This is complete nonsense, as the same device with the proprietary bcmwl drivers works, and other devices (and operating systems) works fine.

Upstream report: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=142764079310333&w=2

Using proprietary bcmwl is no longer a WORKAROUND due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1438003 .
