Broadcom wireless problems

[gold_finger]

You shouldn't have to do anything else as far as I know.  Don't have whole lot of experience messing with wireless problems, so someone else may correct me on that.

Double-check that the wireless isn't turned off on the hardware level.  Do you have any kind of switch or slider that turns it on and off?  A special key that you hit to enable it?

When you click or right-click on the networking icon, is wireless networking enabled?

If none of the above point to the problem, post back output of this in a terminal:

Code:

rfkill list
