I have the identical wireless card and problem.  Couldnt find a guide that 
worked, but I Tried the "other" net manager, wcid I think, and really screwed 
up things.  Had to reinstall Maverick for the 3rd time.  This time it worked.  
Even made grub work right.  If your home dir is on a separate partition it;s 
an easy job to reformat root and reinstall.  Dont waste your time trying to 
install over the old root stuff, the spray from the wind will get you in the 
face!  

If you dont have your home dir on a separate partition, make a backup so you 
can keep all your settings. Then restore to a separate partition.  It'll save 
you grief later on.
