That's what I was thinking I'd seen suggested here before, too. I did
a quick "apt-cache search" for the bcm43 that Didier mentioned because
I remember encountering that in the past. This limited list came back
so it's here in whole:

b43-fwcutter - utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware
firmware-b43-installer - firmware installer for the b43 driver
firmware-b43legacy-installer - firmware installer for the b43legacy driver
broadcom-sta-common - Common files for the Broadcom STA Wireless driver
broadcom-sta-dkms - dkms source for the Broadcom STA Wireless driver
broadcom-sta-source - Source for the Broadcom STA Wireless driver
firmware-brcm80211 - Binary firmware for Broadcom/Cypress 802.11 wireless cards
