Christof,

Thank you for your suggestion and recipe. I've been having this problem with a Dell Laptop D610 using the mini-PCI Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5751 with ndiswrapper and the XP driver bcmwl15.

I tried to rebuild wpa_supplicant as you indicated. It didn't work with the pause you recommended, but increasing it to 100000 (0.1 sec) made it work flawlessly. The patch that worked for me was, therefore:

patch ./src/rsn_supp/wpa.c <<EOF
987a988
> usleep(10); // pause needed - because sending is in progress?
 EOF

PS. In my system, I also had to install package debhelper.
