I ran hwinfo --wlan and the result is:

Try using these instructions:

Also, take a look at this bug report for the problems I met, and how
to solve them:
<https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=229430>
It is solved finally. Actually, I didn't want to use "ndiswrapper" and
hence Windows drivers, since Windows is not welcomed to my systems at
all, but the other approach which is "bcm43xx-fwcutter" workd at first,
but it stopped after a while and never worked again. Now, with
"ndiswrapper" everything works fine. I also realized (maybe I am just
obsessed by OpenSuse) that OpenSuse manages wireless connections much
better than Ubuntu. With OpenSuse, I can use my wireless network even
when I am in my car (in garage of course) but with Ubuntu I had
difficulties to connect to my network even in my room! Can it make sense?
