How do I get the BCM 4312 wireless card working on a Dell Mini 10v?

Question

I have looked at other posts similar to this, but no solution helped.

I upgraded to 13.04 on a Dell Inspiron Mini 10v. Now I don't have wifi connectivity. It is absolutely essential that I have wifi on this computer. I've tried the code suggested at this link, Dell 3721 Wifi problem Ubuntu 13.04 but it didn't work. What can I do?

I think

 this is the extra information needed:

I have tried work out what those instructions mean, and they are not clear to me. They might be relevant to that person and their level of expertise, but they haven't helped me. — user89747, May 08 '13 at 12:14
How can I get any help? The issue is not resolved. This is for a computer that when it is connected to the net, it's almost always via wifi, and at times tethered wifi. — user89747, May 18 '13 at 01:38
