I can't seem to enable the wireless interface on the newly installed Ubuntu 14.04 on Asus 14.04

I've tried the solutions on: Installing Broadcom Wireless Drivers
but it still doesn't work I've installed that bcmwl-kernel-source and firmware-b43-installer and firmware-b43-installer and reboot several times.
here's the result for the following command:
rfkill list all

0: asus-wlan: Wireless LAN
    Soft blocked: no
    Hard blocked: no
1: asus-bluetooth: Bluetooth
    Soft blocked: no
    Hard blocked: no`



lspci -vnn | grep Network

03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43142 802.11b/g/n [14e4:4365] (rev 01)



iwconfig
eth0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.

sudo lshw -C network
