Wait a second. So are all these tests coming from the same machine? Do
I get it right that:
1) Debian (3.2.0) + wl.ko (5.100.82.112) = GOOD
2) ArchLinux + wl.ko (6.30.223.248) = BAD
3) ArchLinux + b43.ko = BAD
?

If so it would mean that:
1) Upgrading kernel broke something
2) Upgrading wl.ko broken something

Do you still have this Debian? Could you try following setup:
Debian (3.2.0) + wl.ko (6.30.223.248)
and let us know if it works?
