Same here with 2.6.30-rc4, b43 and either Cisco (MAC-Addr starts with
00:40:96) or HP ProCurve (??? - they do WiFi? - MAC-Addr starts with
00:1F:FE) APs. No encryption, quite noisy environment (University).

No problem with ipw2200 (actually 2915) in the same hardware (Thinkpad
X31). Neither with the b43 and a standard Linksys WRT54GL (in the same!
noisy university-env).
