Install broadcom 43228 wireless card

Hello there, I'm trying to set up my wireless card on my ThinkPad with archlinux. So far I have installed the network manager and the applet, that way I can see the connections available in i3.
Since I neede some proprietary drivers I have also installed this packages (that should support my wireless card): https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/b43-firmware/

The problem is that the network-manager-applet shows only the wired connections and I don't know what else is missing...

If I run "lspci -vnn -d 14e4:" I can see that the drivers loaded are stille the original one:

Kernel driver in use: bcma-pci-bridge
Kernel modules: bcma

What else should I do?

Connect manually to debug. Then, once it all working, introduce NM.

Moving to NC...
