Recently repurposed Macbook Pro (7,1) as ubuntu station.
Wireless wasn't working. ubuntu-drivers recommended bcmwl-kernel-source.
Installed as recommended.

Not reliable on boot. Mostly wlp2s0 Scan_results error (-22).

After some research discovered that firmware-b43-installer supports chipset on this Mac.

from
apt-cache show firmware-b43-installer
<snip>
 Supported chipsets:
  * BCM4306/3;
  * BCM4311;
  * BCM4318;
  * BCM4321;
  * BCM4322 (only 14e4:432b);
  * BCM4312 (with Low-Power a.k.a. LP-PHY).
</snip>

After purging bcmwl-kernel-source, installing firmware-b43-installer, wireless works fine.

suggest that firmware-b43-installer be a listed option for bcm4322 (14e4:432b) in ubuntu-drivers
