I have the problem too (Dell Inspiron 9400) but could found a workaround to live with the bug
#18 and #28 did not help
For Cerin: my workaround is
1) Menu Network/Find a hidden network and put the SSID (I have WPA2 and no broadcast of SSID)
Instead of displaying only a serie of \x00 (same length as the length of the SSID), the correct SSID is then displayed, click then on "Connect"
2) Once the connection is established, it will be kept after a "Hibernate" but will be lost after a shutdown (it is logic)

I have to try #9 (downgrade) some day...
