This might be in interest of yours.
At first get the driver:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential dkms broadcom-sta-modules
1st package isn't essencial.
download this package
Install it:
sudo dpkg -i wireless-bcm43142-dkms_6.20.55.19-1_amd64.deb
And run:
sudo modprobe wl
I have not tried your solution but got tired of trying to just enable my laptop WiFi, even I tried Ubuntu, Fedora, Kali and debian. and with all of them I had the same problem. so I just uninstalled it for now, will try that . thanks
