This happens also with Broadcom 43142, and similar devices, the problem
is the driver itself, just because no problem with windows.

Title:
  Bad WiFi connection and no working Bluetooth with BCM43142

Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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.
