Wifi doesn't work Ubuntu 12.4 LTS on Dell XPS M1330
I'm new to Linux Ubuntu and since I install it, I can't connect to the wireless internet.
I've searched on the internet for solutions but I couldn't find for my problem. Here follows what I've tried.
Doing the command sudo lshw -c network; lsb_release -a; uname -a; sudo rfkill list; dmesg | grep -i firm
I got:

I followed the steps from
https:/
"Installing STA drivers
STA - Internet access"
but it didn't solved my problem.
On System Settings > Additional Drivers, Broadcom STA wireless driver is activated and currently in use.
When I unplug the ethernet cable, the internet can't find any wireless networks.
What can I do?
