I updated my system last night after which I was not able to use network on my laptop. I tried to install ethernet driver as I had it locally but could not make the wifi work.
Earlier the /lib/modules folder had 3.16* directory only, now I could see some 4.1* alongside. Also, the driver in use was *wl* which was working fine, but now I couldn't install wl. The installation reports are in the attachments.
The first time I installed Debian 8.1, I had the same issue, traversed Synaptic and installed broadcom-sta-dkms which fixed the issue.
