LennartP, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping

sta/+bug/1289746/comments/14 the bug has been fixed in the latest
development version of Ubuntu - Vivid Vervet.

This is a significant bug in Ubuntu. If you need a fix for the bug in

Title:
  14e4:4727 [Asus 1225B] BCM4313 not working with D-Link DIR-645 AP

Status in bcmwl package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
  Release: 14.04

  2) apt-cache policy broadcom-sta-source
  broadcom-sta-source:
    Installed: 6.30.223.141-1
    Candidate: 6.30.223.141-1
    Version table:
   *** 6.30.223.141-1 0
          500 http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/multiverse amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3) What is expected to happen with my Asus 1225B-SIV047M laptop and
  DLINK DIR-645 AP is the WiFi works via the broadcom-sta-source driver.

  4) What happened instead: Almost nothing. There is a valid ARP entry
  for the AP in the ARP cache, but there are no replies from ping. The
  same problem existed in 13.10 with this computer about a month ago.
  However, this computer has been able to use the AP w/o problems
  running 12.04 until about six months ago, when no longer connect to
  it. I tried upgrading the AP firmware to 1.04 B12 but this didn't
  change anything.

  I have two Android devices of different versions using the AP without
  problems.

  However, the wifi works with an AP from Huawei.
