Solution: (For me anyway)

Gabriel's post of his environment kind of struck me with the answer. I also have a BCM4310 USB Controller and was using NDISWrapper before upgrading to Hardy. I noticed after the upgrade that I was using the "wl" alternate driver and it was showing up as one of my "Restricted Drivers" and before it wasn't there. I followed the instructions here to restore my wireless to use the previous driver:

and voila! I can now ssh and scp using my wireless interface. It might have been possible to simply uncheck the enabled box in the restricted drivers application and restart but I know for sure the above link fixed my problems. I hope this helps someone.
