Problem widely discussed, which I tested also myself while I have 
similar Asus A6K with BCM4318. I used (with success) this manual:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190177

My fellow citizen had created some elegant(?) solution:

Click "download", then unpack the archive and start the script install. 
I did not tested this, so don't blame me ;) if it will burn your half 
of the Earth to radioactive ashes.

There is also a notice about buggy half-open driver (firmware blob is 
needed anyway) since kernel 2.6.17.

Please post a feedback about your success.
