Comment 9 for bug 722185

I managed to build several kernels from the source for linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic using various configs that previously worked using the method above or make-kpkg, but failed to connect wirelessly using:

cp /path/to/oldconfig debian.master/configs/i386/config.flavour.generic
debian/rules updateconfigs
debian/rules clean
fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic skipabi=true skipmodule=true no_dumpfile=true

I don't understand why, but every kernel I build using the above method goes into the associating 1,2,3 timed out, direct probe 1,2,3 timed out loop.
