So validate that you are not on latest kernel from ubuntu.
I faced problem Broadcom STA driver failing to load on linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic (the latest kernel update which appeared today in my update manager.). I reverted back to linux-image-2.6.35-24-generic and got my Broadcom STA driver working again. I filed a bug on it as below. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/712293 Regards, James
