Comment 28 for bug 1173761

I also had problem with the current wl driver.
I got the log shown below when booting.

root@lp123:~# uname -a
Linux lp123 3.8.0-26-generic #38-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jun 17 21:43:33 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

root@lp123:~# lspci | grep Broadcom
03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation Device 43b1 (rev 03)

I downloaded and compiled the 6_30_223_95 driver and it was built correctly. But to get it to work I had to copy it to another directory than that the "make install" command installed it.
cp wl.ko /lib/modules/3.8.0-26-generic/updates/dkms/

After a reboot it worked to connect to the 2.4GHz network.
I don't see my 5GHz network and no bluetooth icon in the top bar.

I hope this info will help to get this fix it.
