Broadcom Wireless driver

New to Linux, love this distro.
I'm installing 4.2 Mate onto a Dell Inspiron 15 M5010 laptop.
Laptop has a Broadcom BCM4313 integrated wireless PCI card, I went to the Debian Wiki site,
https://wiki.debian.org/wl to get some help. Followed the instructions on the page but still no luck.

What am I missing? I've tested this card on a lot of distros, (mint, ubuntus, lite, peppermint, zorin) but
the only ones I can't get the card to work are Sparky 4.2 and Robolinux 8.2

Any advice would help.

Thank you.

Try to load the module manually:
sudo modprobe b43
