This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. For help making this question more broadly applicable, see the FAQ.

If you are not comfortable providing more information, then try this:

Connect to the internet with a cable. Open Software Center and search for firmware-b43-installer. After installing, reboot.

On my old Dell laptop this would always happen to me after an upgrade.
I would fix it by installing the Broadcom STA drivers. To do so, you can open Software Centre and search for bcmwl-kernel-source, or just open a terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T and install the package by copying in the following line and pressing enter:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
