check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx

AFAIK theres a bug that keeps the additional drivers dialog from popping up,
but you should be able to determine from that link if its applicable to your
hardware, and how to deal with the issue if it is... also, if you have some
live CD's such as ubuntu 10.04 laying around, see if you can get it working
in there easily, and note what driver the device uses, and that should help
you with whatever version you are struggling with now.
