Hello!
There are three major proprietary Broadcom drivers out there - bcmwl, b43, and b43legacy. You may have to use a wired connection, a wireless stick the Linux kernel DOES recognize, or a tethered mobile phone connection to go out there and actually download the driver.
Here's how to tell which driver you'll need:
Using the shortcut >_ on the bottom panel or CTRL-ALT-T, open a terminal window (SHIFT-\ will type the "|" character), and type this:
This will return a code (14e4:43xx) and a verbose description of exactly which card you have. You can either Google that result or post it here, and someone will tell you how to go forward from there...
