The broadcom-sta package includes the kernel module 'wl', which contains
the Broadcom-provided proprietary kernel driver that supports a number of
their cards. Known supported model numbers include the BCM4311, BCM4312,
BCM4321, and BCM4322 chipsets.
Read the included LICENSE.txt file (placed in /usr/doc) before using this.
You may also want to create /etc/modprobe.d/b43_blacklist.conf and add the
following lines to it:
blacklist b43
blacklist b43legacy
blacklist bcma
blacklist ssb
