Did you upgrade or do a clean install?Since going from 11.10 to 12.04 I have been unable to get wireless working.

Found a Archlinux wiki guide on Broadcom wireless courtesy of Blackwolf of Ultimate Edition Oz forums, hope this guide can help you guys somehow.
Did a full reinstall of Precise on my Compaq Presario M2000, which has a Broadcom 4318 wireless device, and used the alternate distro as the regular distro was hanging on me.
Referring to post #514 in this thread, which I posted last fall, I performed steps 0, 3, and 4. And it is working again.

Ok, i have tried just about every guide i can find to getting wireless working on my DELL 1525...but im about ready to give up and by a USB dongle.
I have tried reinstalling ubuntu, b43 drivers, sta drivers...and any thing else i have read.
I am not a TOTAL linux noob, but i do struggle with even some of the simplest tasks as it has been about 5 years since my first (positive) experience with linux
I am willing to run any command and post outputs, but i need the commands pretty much spoon fed. i can google stuff like how to untar and other thigns like that if necessary, but the simpler the better.
lspci returns: Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY (rev 01)
Any help would be great. Thank you.
Hello folks,
after many trial and error with wl and b43 drivers, randomly loosing connection on BCM4312 I found wireless drivers are conflicting with Intel's ethernet driver e1000e. Simple rmmod e1000e resolves the connection issue. What is intriguing I am unable to successfully blacklist this module co I have to manually remove it after boot. Does anyone have suggestions how to make permanent fix of forward this bug upstream to dev teams ?

mine just went dead on me after the latest update today. no matter what package i install, my wireless driver refuses to activate. if i try to use the additional drivers program, it tells me that it failed to install and to check "/var/log/jockey.log", which reads as this
