See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Br … roadcom-wl

However the WL module seems to be there, but maybe an issue with loading post your

dmesg

That chip-id is listed as being covered by brcm80211 (which is included in the kernel package).  This will generally be easier to get working than wl.  Why did you install wl, and which package did you install?

Install net-tool pkg and then post the output of :

ifconfig

I think it's a driver problem because the wireless card is recognized.
