You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Today, after applying updates suggested by Ubuntu's Update Manager, my
Wireless Card stopped working.

I determined my wireless card with the following command:
lspci | grep -i wireless
04:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless

I determined my kernel with the following command:
uname -a
Linux  3.5.0-18-generic #29-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 19 10:26:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Why did this kernel update cause my wireless card to stop working?
