It may not be possible to fix a buggy driver by fiddling with a buggy driver. The problem may be the driver itself. A kernel upgrade might help or might not, but would be rather drastic.

It's quite possible the problem is specific to your model of laptop, as well. Manufacturers have a choice of how they attach the wiring to the wireless adaptor, and put whatever workarounds they need into the Windows driver, and Linux has to find out the difference the hard way. (This is why laptop hardware so often has its own particular drivers instead of using the manufacturer's generic ones.) Search for discussions on your exact laptop model.
