wifi problems hp compaq nx6325
I installed Ubuntu 12.04 today. I installed it a few months ago without incident on another computer, but I've run into a wall here. The wifi button does not respond, but the light is on. When I click on my connections I seem to only have a choice for wired. Here is what I believe to be the information you need. Let me know if you need more.

When I tried to pull the the dmesg information I got what seemed excessive and possibly repeating information. I could not access all the messages that was spawned. I can post the information I was able to access if you need it. Also, it may be pertinent: under additional drivers I have Broadcom STA wireless driver it is activated and says it is currently in use. Where do I go from here? Thanks so much!
