Install the package "bcm43xx-fwcutter" from universe. It will automatically download and extract the firmware during the install process.

Once you have universe enabled (this is default on Gutsy I think) run:

$ sudo aptitude install bcm43xx-fwcutter

I hope this works for you (and other who find this in the future).
