The only OS I have used has been windows but I wanted to try lubuntu on a netbook. I'm booting from a flash drive to try it out first. How do I connect the wifi. Remember I'm new to this so I not sure how the OS even works completely aka sudo command.

Okay, there are two solutions given in a previous thread about getting a bcm4312 adapter working, and they seem fairly simple:
I have BCM4312 wireless card too.
What I needed to do:
Go to: System->Administrator->Additional Drivers(Hardware drivers)
(In Lubuntu, the Additional Drivers menu should be under System Tools.)
Then click to Broadcom STA wireless driver and enable it.Restart
To me it's the easiest way.
And here's the second:
You will have to install the B43xx firmware. Just install firmware-b43-installer from the Software Center or Synaptic.
You can also do it from the command line:
sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
