Just installed my first Linux Distro; Ubuntu 14.04 and I couldn't access the wifi. I tried following some other guides but all of them didn't and gave me Errors. Can I have some clear instructions as to what I should do? (considering I have no idea how to code let alone use Ubuntu efficiently) I'm not allowed to post screenshots/images but I don't have any wifi options in the drop down menu on the top right of the bar.

lspci -knn | grep Net -A2 gives:

06:02.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4318] (rev 02)
    Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN [103c:1356]
    Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge

You can run in terminal

sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
sudo modprobe -r b43
sudo modprobe b43

and Wi-Fi will work.
