following:
linux-firmware-nonfree
linux-backports-modules-net-{linuxversion}

Hi.
If memory serves me, I had a similar problem when I used Ubuntu 12.10.
Not sure, but I think the problem was caused by lack of installation of
header files from the new kernel, which prevented the compilation of
modules related to this card.
Look for a package named linux-kernel-headers, linux-headers or something
of that sort and see if it is installed. I am not sure about the correct
name.
If it is installed, check if the installed version is compatible with the
version of the kernel.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.

Over the weekend I did an update on an older dell laptop running 12.04.
It has been doing fine with that os until now. After the update when I
rebooted it is no longer loading the modules for the BCM4401-B0 ethernet
card whic means that of course that computer no longer has access to any
network.
Can anyone think of any reason this may have happened and if there is a
solution to it. I have done a serch of the internet especially ubuntu
and found no information.
Thanks
Tom
