Title:
  bcmwl/brcm80211 can't see wifi channels >11 (2.462GHz)

Status in Mactel Support:
  New
Status in “bcmwl” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Can't see channels >11 (2.462GHz) any more. Channels 1-11 still work,
  but 12 and 13 are invisible to both "iwlist scan" and network manager
  now.

  The problem seems to be new in natty (alpha 2) with bcmwl-kernel-
  source 5.100.82.38+bdcom-0ubuntu2. However maverick with 5.60.48.36
  +bdcom-0ubuntu5 can see the access point on any channel no problem.

  System is a Macbook Air 3,1 with PCI device:
