have you tried blacklisting the wl module on command line....

I'd have to look up the exact commands for doing on command line but am sure you can google it

maybe something like this on grub command line...

wl.blacklist=yes

but would only be good til next reboot....again you can google it and try it...

wl module has been known to interfere with broadcom modules.....need to pin it down first
