As Lubomir mentions, this is the (well known?) problem of ssb interfering with wl. You should be able to just "rmmod wl ssb; modprobe wl" and wireless will work.

To fix this more permanently, create a file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-wl.conf containing the line "blacklist ssb". Then run "update-initramfs -u" so the initrd knows about the blacklist, and ssb will go away.

As I mentioned in #367601, it would be great if either
* ssb could be stopped from tryin load for the BCM4328, or
* jockey could be told how to unload ssb so wl will work
