This is a cross post from the wiki page I just updated. It may be relevant if your wireless card looks something like this "Broadcom Corporation BCM4322" from an lspci.
Ever since updating to kernel26 2.6.30.5-1 my wireless card stopped working. After cross referencing some driver and module settings with my backup ubuntu install, I determined that arch was now auto loading the 'b43' and 'ssb' module and using them instead of the 'wl' driver. To make your wireless card work again, you will need to blacklist the 'b43' and 'ssb' modules in your rc.conf like so.
MODULES=(powernow-k8 ... !ssb !b43 lib80211_crypt_tkip wl)
Hopefully this will be useful for other people out there with similar broadcom cards.

Thanks for the post - I was already wondering why my card would just stop working.

My broadcom BCM4322 just won't work. I have no idea why
I have the b43 and ssb modules disabled and lib80211_crypt_tkip an wl both enabled. Networkmanager doesn't let me enable wireless and it says "wireless is disabled".
What the heck do we have to do to make the broadcom BCM4322 work?

Well, for starters you could make a thread instead of bumping one from 2009 with a kernel release that's 4 versions back....
