[Bug 1228122] Re: bcmwl-kernel-source 6.20.155.1+bdcom-0ubuntu0.0.1: bcmwl kernel module failed to build
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1095751 ***

Worked for me, when i followed the following steps
Thaks a lot guys
STEPS>>
Uninstall the bcmwl-kernel-source package by issuing the following
command on a terminal:
sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source
make sure that the firmware-b43-installer and the b43-fwcutter packages are installed (of course you will need internet by others means):
sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer b43-fwcutter
type into terminal:
cat /etc/modprobe.d/* | egrep 'bcm'
(you may want to copy this) and see if the term 'blacklist bcm43xx' is there
if it is, type cd /etc/modprobe.d/ and then sudo gedit blacklist.conf
put a # in front of the line: blacklist bcm43xx
then save the file (I was getting error messages in the terminal about
not being able to save, but it actually did save properly).
reboot
