I installed ubuntu 14. I'm having unstable wireless Internet connection with my BCM4312 card. It's connected and after few seconds it's gone.

Please have a look at the wireless script. What can I do to get a stable connection?

According to your pastebin you need to install the firmware files for your wireless adapter.

 [   36.601073] b43-phy0 ERROR: Firmware file "b43-open/ucode15.fw" not found

Ubuntu has a page dedicated to helping users with broadcom WIFI adapters.

You need to remove the incorrect driver:

sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source

Reboot and let us hear your report

I had a similar problem (as analyzed in @h0twir3 answer) with the broadcom b43xx firmware.

Simply installing the open source b43 driver (source) with :

 apt-get install firmware-b43-installer 

solved my missing firmware problem.
