I just installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my Lenovo notebook with a Broadcom network device. My wifi isn't working. I tried to activate a private driver, but that didn't work.

It sounds like you may need to install drivers for your wireless card.

First, can you please go into the terminal and type

lspci -nn -d 14e4:

and tell me what it returns to you?

Also run this: iwconfig after and post the results, too.

EDIT:

It appears that this wifi card is not yet supported according to other users and its not listed in the package install table in the previous link.
