Broadcom wireless troubles:
I had success getting this to work by marking these five packages for reinstallation in the synaptic package manager:
bcmwl-kernel-source
broadcom-sta-common
broadcom-sta-source
b43-fwcutter
bcmwl-modaliases
Then applying and most importantly rebooting. Once I rebooted, my wireless card began functioning. I have the bcm4313.
