I have also recently been asked to set up a Dell Inspiron 5520 and I cannot find out a way to get the Broadcom wifi to work. It is a dual bluetooth and wifi card birth e bluetooth works out of he box. I have tried install_bcm_43xx (I think it's that) command which worked on my other laptop but the wifi adapter still does not show in network manager. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Have you tried my earlier suggestion? In case you've lost that message, I'll repeat it here Download the relevant 32 or 64 bit driver package from http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php, as well as the README.txt file, which contains explicit instructions on how to install the kernel module. In my case, I had to blacklist all the other drivers, but this is all explained in the Readme file.
