I am running Ubuntu 12.10 alongside Windows 7 I can connect to the internet using ethernet but cannot detect any wireless networks. When I use Windows 7 I can connect fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The output for lspci -v | grep -iA 10 network was:

If there are no suggested drivers in the Additional drivers tab:
Before you do this run:
lspci -nn | grep -i network
and make sure the device number matches this Broadcom Corporation Device [14e4:4365]
If that's the case
Download this dkms enabled bcm43142 driver from jas.gemnetworks.com and save it in your Download
folder.
In the term run:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential dkms
then install the package, still in the term:
cd ~/Download
sudo dpkg -i wire*.deb
sudo modprobe wl
