I had the same problem with my BCM4318 after installing Kubuntu Hardy KDE4. I filed a different bug, though, since I didn't know fw-cutter would download the necessary firmware. It wouldn't work for me in previous releases so I used ndiswrapper.

To contribute to this bug: First I used Jockey to install b43-fw-cutter. Then I downloaded the firmware from the web and installed it with b43-fw-cutter manually through the command line. My wireless works ever since. So b43-fw-cutter seems to be working in this regard.
