Additional Drivers not showing wireless driver (ASUS PCE-AC88)

[porkchop_001]

I've just done a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 on my home PC. I plugged in ethernet to do the updates and also check to see if additional drivers were available. Additional CPU and GPU drivers were listed, and I switched to them. However, there was no wireless driver listed.


I have an ASUS PCE-AC88 which is plugged into the bottom PCI-E slot of my Gigabyte AORUS Z270X-Gaming K5 motherboard.


I ran the following:


lspci -v

And saw what I think is my card being recognised:


Network Controller: Broadcom Corporation Device 43c3 (rev 04)

Is there somewhere I can get a driver for it? I'd love to be able to use wireless! Any help would be awesome. Thanks :)
