Exclamation sleep kills airport (broadcom bcm43xx)

Hi, first, i would like to thank the creator of the bcm43xx_enabler.sh script for making my wireless working in my laptop

But i got a small issue with airport and sleep.

When i make my computer go to sleep, everything goes well but then when i wakeup the computer, Airport is disabled and i cannot enable it. Clicking on "enable airport" just does nothing. even rerunning the bcm43xx_enabler.sh script in terminal does nothing. Seems like I absolutely need to reboot, then i get airport working right again.

i searched a lot on a couple of forums about this but found nothing to fix it. Thats why i gave up and posted here

I hope someone has a solution, because this is the last thing to fix before i have a 100% working macbook (or Hackbook...).

please help me! thanks in advance
