BCM4322 keeps switching band frequency

Hi I do have an old macbook (late 2008) with an embedded BCM4322 
wireless device. I use the b43 driver and I keep getting 
disconnected/reconnected as the driver switches band frequencies ..  I 
always had this issue with all the kernels I used. Do you guys have any 
idea how to force the driver working at a single frequency ??

dmesg :
