Try the following.






Building kernel modue:



1. Install the packages module-assistant, broadcom-sta, broadcom-dkms and broadcom-sta-source


2. start module-assistant, command: m-a


3. In GUI enter  UPDATE


4. In GUI enter  PREPARE


5. In GUI enter  SELECT


6. In SELECT menu choose broadcom-sta and click ok


7. In GUI enter GET


8. In GUI enter BUILD


9. In GUI enter INSTALL


After finish enter BACK and EXIT.





You will need the firmware. The firmware is distribution independent, so you can get it from other distributions, like here from AUR:


https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bcm43142a0-firmware


Get it and put it manually into /lib/firmware






Now try again. Hope this helps.


Best regards


Hans
