Did you leave something out? The lsmod showed that you already had
bcm43xx-mac80211 loaded ('-' == '_' for lsmod), and you already had
eth1 marked up and with an IP address assigned. I can't think of
any reason why those commands should make any difference.
Is this repeatable? Did you move the laptop during this process?
