Please copy-paste each command below one by one into a Terminal. Hit <ENTER> after each command.

echo "blacklist bcma" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
echo "blacklist brcmsmac" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
echo "blacklist brcm80211" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source

After running the commands above, make sure to select "Load Defaults" in the BIOS, save the configuration.

Then reboot and retest wireless using the wl driver.
