安装了Ubuntu最新版本 14.04 之后，发现无线网卡不能使用，偿试安装驱动后，问题解决。
首先确定无线网卡类型：
lspci -vnn -d 14e4:
比如我的网卡类型为
06:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter [14e4:4727]
根据网卡类型14e4:4727，对照下面这张表，找到所要安装的驱动，此处我所需要安装的就是wl种类的
请仔细查看设备 ID and 芯片名称 .

安装步骤：
1、先安装b43-fwcutter工具，如下：
下载b43-fwcutter源码：
http://bues.ch/b43/fwcutter/b43-fwcutter-018.tar.bz2
解压后，进入到目录中，执行
make
sudo make install
2、安装驱动
下载驱动文件：
http://www.lwfinger.com/b43-firmware/broadcom-wl-5.100.138.tar.bz2 使用b43-fwcutter工具安装驱动
sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware broadcom-wl-5.100.138/linux/wl_apsta.o
3、加载驱动
modprobe b43
加载驱动可能需要时间比较长，请耐心等待。
