Thank you all for your very kind comments. You've made my day! I am very gratified when a new user has his/her wireless working and begins to really appreciate Ubuntu Linux.

Really really thanks!
Awesome! Worked after I managed to sort out my poor terminal inputs.
I have a similar Issue, (Non-working WIFI on a Dell Inspiron 1501 on a new install of Ubuntu) but thought it not proper to piggy back onto another's message thread. So I have started a new thread for my issue here:Dell Inspiron 1501 + Ubuntu 13.04 = WIFI doesn't work. If any of you can go there and help me I'd appreciate it.
Best Wishes,
Stephen
I have a Dell Inspiron 1420 with the exact same wireless card as OP. I've tried:
sudo apt-get remove --purge bcmwl-kernel-source
sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree
and rebooted, but I still get no wireless signal and no indication that my wireless card is active.
Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated!
