Hii
I am facing wifi unstablitiy on arch linux 3.15.8-1-ck. It was working fine until yesterday when i updated my system.My linux kernel was linux-ck-haswell-3.15.5-2-x86_64 and wifi driver was broadcom-wl-ck-haswell-6.30.223.141-25-x86_64 but now both of them have been updated to  linux-ck-haswell-3.15.8-1 and broadcom-wl-ck-haswell-6.30.223.248-1-x86_64 and i am facing a lot of wifi drops.
I have googled about it a lot but dint got any solution.
Moreover i am using Lenovo Ideapad Z510 having wireless adapter Broadcom BCM43142.

Anyone facing this problem or am i the only one who is facing such issues??
and i dont want to switch to anyother os because of wifi problem
btw which logs are required??
Pls help me.
