Hmm, I still cannot connect even though power management is off.

Does anyone have an idea what to try next?
this is the relevant part of lspci -v

First priority is to get wifi working when on DC power
Actually, it would be nice to have power management when it works at all, so if anyone knows a workaround.

Talk to Broadcom. You are using a closed-source driver. How could we possibly
help debug that?

Make sure that your laptop vendor knows how unhappy you are with Broadcom’s
unwillingness to cooperate fully with the open-source community, and that you
never will buy their product again.
FYI, the b43 group has not been able to get Broadcom to help with your BCM4313.
They will not even donate a card.
