[Bug 1416892] [NEW] Bad WiFi connection and no working Bluetooth with BCM43142

 

Public bug reported:

Two different problems with the same device:

1. Bluetooth doesn't work at all. The device is detected properly and
the driver is apparently installed, but no connection can be
established.

2. WiFi connection is half so strong as with other devices or the same
computer with Windows. It also gets lost if farther away than 3 meters
without walls inbetween from the router.
