I can confirm that after suspend, the wireless will not wake up. That 
is, softmac looses it's association. You have to repeatedly try to 
reassociate with
iwconfig wlan0 essid your-essid.
(btw: you have to do that when you boot up to associate with your essid 
- but that is another story).

Using:
Linux 2.6.15-1.2039_FC5 #1 SMP Thu Mar 9 22:45:05 EST 2006 x86_64 x86_64 
x86_64 GNU/Linux
Hardware: AMD 64bit Turion, Broadcom 54g using bcm43xx (computer is hp
