I have been working on this for 3 days now. I am not an Ubuntu user by choice, but am trying to get it working on a dell latitude 1200. When it was running 9.04 wireless was fine. I upgraded to 12.04 so that I could upgrade firefox. I have tried every possible command that I have been able to find regarding installing broadcom STA driver. I really don't understand how I ams supposed to use a wired connection-i don't have one. My device is working, but when I do a iwconfig command I get LO no wireless extensions, and eth0 no wireless extension. There is no wlan shown. Please explain in detail what to do. I am not a programmer at all and don't wish to be. HELP!

I had lots of problems via upgrading ubuntu versions. I recommend you just do a clean install not an upgrade. It will do it correct.I had 12.04 and upgraded it to 12.10 but everything goes wrong. Now I just installed 13.04 and everything working fine.
Do it a try.
