i've googled for hours and i'm getting nowhere.
i've been using linux for almost two whole days.

i think i have all the drivers i need installed the way they need to be, but it seems like my wireless card (broadcom) isn't being recognized at all. like it doesn't exist, but it does, i promise.

know how u feel, i ditched linux 3 times because of the Wifi card... I spent ages trying to get Mad Wifi working (madwifi.sourceforge.net) until i found out that the manufacturer had actually posed as using the wrong chipset... then went to http://www.houseofcraig.net/acx100_howto.php
