Asus 1215n sometimes it refuses to connect by wifi

I've got asus 1215n with that Wifi card:

03:00.0 0280: 14e4:4727 (rev 01)
	Subsystem: 1a3b:2047
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17
	Memory at f9ffc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
	Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 3
	Capabilities: [58] Vendor Specific Information: Len=78 <?>
	Capabilities: [48] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
	Capabilities: [d0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
	Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
	Capabilities: [13c] Virtual Channel
	Capabilities: [160] Device Serial Number 00-00-60-ff-ff-fd-48-5d
	Capabilities: [16c] Power Budgeting <?>
	Kernel driver in use: brcmsmac

It's broadcom bcm4313
I use networkmanager for connecting. Sometimes it is not able to connect (to authenticate to be specific).
I have to reload kernel module, restart networkmanager, sometimes i have to do it several times and it works... or doesn't and then i have to just reboot it sad
Is there any tips to make it working like it should?

Sometimes networkmanager does that to me (but only for my intel centrino wireless, the broadcome one works just fine). Try switching to wicd for network management.
If it is a driver problem you could try broadcom-wl driver for your card which  should work better...

broadcom-wl has exactly the same problem...
With wicd this is happening as often as with nm sad

There's nothing relevant for me.
I did everything from there and it's the last problem with that card
