[Bug 1387986] [NEW] 14e4:4331 [MacBookPro9, 2] b43 driver drops connection very often

 

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.10 installed on Macbook Pro 9,2, with Broadcom 14e4:4331.
Using b43 driver, connection randomly drops, and only way to recover is shutdown and reboot.
With Mac OSX, same network, connection is absolutely stable.

and 802.11n.
