I have not been able to get the list of networks to show up in Network Manager. I tried the NM wiki but still no luck. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Still not having any luck with it. I tried both the b43 and bcm43xx firmware. I can't get the LED light on either.

That INTERFACES line looks a bit odd. What's up with the '=dhcp' bit?

I don't know what I'm doing (obviously) ,but I changed it according to the wiki. Still not working though.

I cannot get the LED light on. The card works fine because I am using XP right now.
I installed both the bcm43xx and the bm43 firmware in an attempt to get it working. Could one or the other be causing a conflict?
When I tried to modprobe either of the two I get something like "invalid operation."
When I do
b43-fwcutter -w "/lib/firmware/" wl_apsta_mimo.o
it gives me an error saying the input doesn't exist.
edit: Could I get this moved to the wireless section?
