This link contains instructions for deciding which driver it is you need
and installing it. There are two to choose from (three sometime in the
future when the newest free kernel module, brcm80211, gets finished).
See the links at the bottom of the page for more info.

There's a number of us in Toronto, a few folks active in the community
are also associated with (or hang out at), Linux Caffe and Free Geek
Toronto. Although I've never been to either...
