under sudo lshw command, the condition was like this

*-network DISABLED
               description: Wireless interface
               product: Dell Wireless 1390 WLAN Mini-PCI Card
               vendor: Broadcom Corporation

               bus info: pci at 06:00.0
               logical name: eth1
               version: 01
               serial: 00:1a:73:4e:b6:10

Then, I followed the procedures mentioned in the link

Now, if I give the command sudo lshw, it comes like this,

  *-network UNCLAIMED

                configuration: latency=0
                resources: iomemory:20000000-20003fff irq:3

the whole day.. But nothing fruitful..

I have to do..
